They "killed" him at the end of the second season, we saw how his death affected other characters and now we are going to see the same thing again. Yes we knew he didn't die but the characters didn't know that. It's just too soon to kill him now. The creators said, that Season 3 is split into two seperate arcs. Think of it as, two mini-seasons. Instead of dragging out the Neverland arc for 22 episodes, and saving the Oz arc for Season 4, we are getting them together.... minus the filler.

Plus, Season 3.B takes place a year later. A lot can happen, in that timeframe Emma will be regaining her memories, pretty quickly.... Henry's will not. Neal's (possible) death would be strong enough, to trigger his son's memories.
