I feel sad for Lauren Faust, more than anything else. She clearly loves MLP:FIM. Every time she talks about the show, she just seems so sad.
 
I think it has to do entirely with her not being able to work on the show, and not necessarily where the show is going. I just hear her say how much she really misses working on the show.
 
I know she doesn’t want to undermine the current production team. Part of me would really love to know what she envisioned. Part of me wouldn’t.

Possibly, but then, we don’t know, do we? For all we know, the original plan was for Celestia, when the time came, to give her wings to Twilight. Or, for that matter, the desire to have only two alicorns may have only been an initial stipulation regarding Cadence, in order to make Twilight’s ascention all the more magnificent.
 
In the end, the original plan IS still being followed, just with one big detail altered: princesses now all have wings. We either deal with it, or we don’t. It’s as simple as that.

Not a very good choice of image, OP. Get one where her eyes are open so she doesn’t look silly.
 
Twilight may have become an alicorn, but she didn’t become Celestia’s successor. Since the series isn’t over, maybe they’ll still use the idea, but the track record of use of the good ideas Faust had isn’t very encouraging.
