I was like, huh?

Why such an important thing wasn't even mentioned in the Dark Swan arc???

Even more

They said in seasons 1 and 5 that the Dark One wasn't broken by TLK because Rumplel loved his power more than he loved Belle. But here he did want to break the Dark One curse. So, why didn't the TLK work?

It seems like they just ignored that so this Guardian bs would fit in the show Exactly! Emma had to go through so much to get rid of the Darkness, finding Merlin, getting Merlin out of the tree, killing Killian etc. But Rummy boy just has to find the magic macguffin and then get a reset button. He "just" has to do find that + accepting the death of who he loved, something Emma failed miserably to. Rewatch 5x20.

Rumple seems to be getting a completely clean slate
