You did read the part where I said they could play it as her sacrificing the title, and wings(for whatever reason), because FRIENDSHIP IS TRUE MAGIC, proving that she has truly earned the said title and wings, right??
Also I'll like to see proof that it was intended from the very beginning, Twilight may have been destined for great things, but that doesn't necessarily mean she was to be a alicorn, because I do believe this just a marketing ploy that they came up with out of the blue.
