That about sums it up.

Though this being a show based in fantasy and magic, there can probably be even more ways (from a story perspective) to have Robin resurface.

However, from a real world and production perspecitve, Robin is done. A & E (and the other powers that be) burned the bridge with Sean when they ended the character the way that they did. Sean said that he is just going to move on, as well he should.

And I don't see any way that they could recast the role. First, they already played the Glamour bauble card, no one would buy it a second time. Second (and in my opinion a more important consideration), a recast of the role is basically a slap in the face of Sean. Unlike when they recast the role because Tom Ellis (who appeared in one episode) was unavailable, Sean was a series regular, so availability was not an issue. recasting at this point basically says "Sean, you did a poor job portraying Robin, and it was so bad that we had to kill your character, then recast the role". Sean did a good job with the role, given what little scraps he was given by the writers. There's no need to insult him by recasting the role.
