As we saw in 1x22, breaking the curse doesn't mean magic spontaneously appears

Emma/Henry's TLK broke the curse, and then Rumple brought magic to SB

So, breaking the curse shouldn't kill Henry, as there wouldn't be magic anyway

They are conflating 2 different situations Breaking the curse might bring magic to Hyperion Heights. Depends on how Gothel added to the curse. I'm certain that she might want her magic to return in full.
