It brings too many problems. If anything before The Stranger/Pilot/Queen of Hearts casting of the curse were to be real, then at what point was it or was it not? I mean, did WSnow hit WDavid with a rock? Did she go to Midas's ball? Real Emma and Real Hook changed the WR timeline as well? The easiest way to settle the question is accepting that the WR has nothing to do with Real EF other than their people looking the same. No multiverse, no alternate reality, no past altering etc. etc. Just poor writing forcing us to believe that those people who are clearly real were once supposed to be imaginary
