Did the show's staff specifically say the Mane Six wouldn't appear in the episode, or just wouldn't be featured? In the latter's case, it certainly would be easy to think it meant they wouldn't appear at all, when it meant they'd be playing a minor role. It makes much more sense to have the main characters and background characters' roles reversed, rather than just cutting one group out entirely.
