I think many people would have been unhappy with the ending that Emma and Henry forget everyone and go off living in NYC, while everyone else must live with the memory of them in the EF. That to me is a horribly cruel ending, and not what I would expect from a show that was based primarily around fairy tales.

It was primarily about deconstructing fairytale tropes (not so much now) and like Snow said "Happy Ending are not always what they seem".
