Yeah, goofs were made. I do like clarity though. We do get some like:

"Ever wonder why noone poofs an object back after someone poofs it away from them?"

Well, Jane and the show answers both parts. The show established that you can't teleport something/someone if you don't know where they are (Rumple) (in Regina's case she needed to see them). Jane expressed the "fact" that when someone poofs the potion/object out of your hand into theirs, you can't poof it back, which is why the character that takes the object comes out of nowhere to catch them unaware.

Thus, if Rumple poofs the time-stopping potion from Regina, catching her offguard, Regina can't poof it back.

But that's just some weirdness when we get to feat comparison. A youtube channel has nicely compiled a good chunk of magic users and their magic and the timestamps pretty much shows why Regina and Emma go flipflopping all over our lists, they have the most time and most versatility shown.

Feats v. Statements are what we get tripped up over. Happens other places too. Example, in Marvel Comics, they state Odin = Zeus in power, but Odin has feats, while Zeus has very few, and nothing really note-worthy. Same things happen when we debate Zelena and Regina or Regina and Zelena and their relation to Emma. Feats say Emma in S3 and Zelena season 5 has more powerful magic than Regina season 3. But then we have statements that show likewise, while feats being contrary. Emma by show's logic is more powerful than Regina, rivaling amped Zelena (how they implied it in season 3), but Emma couldn't break normal Zelena's protection spell at all and got tossed. Meanwhile, Regina was expressing herself as equal or rivaling Zelena. All of these can't be true.
