It clearly IS about what Regina has, and not what others need. Regina has a Henry, so this second Henry can have both his grandparents murdered and left an orphan. Regina doesn't have a Robin, so she takes this one? Yep. Let's just go with Rumple, "Your questions are pointless. " and "Nothing makes sense. Anything's possible."

The writers intentions are to tell the viewer how important Robin is too Regina and Twu Luv, but they have a tendency to hit the viewer over the head too much that it makes the characters seem to act bizarrely. I'm certain Adam and Eddy didn't intend Regina to look selfish, but they sort of have their characters be singleminded until further notice.

It's like when David and Hook almost pretty much ignored Belle. Good thing they didn't just shrug her off, like in season 5, because these people help random one epusode strangers better than attempt to help Belle.

Some characters just get the short end of the stick.
