On the contrary. Main 6 are way too important for Equestria, so they were removed from the way first, along with Celestia and Luna, the 2 being the current de facto leaders; even if the leaders were erased, Equestria won't fall that easily. But if the main 6 were, or 1 of them (excluding Spike) was, erased it'd likely end uglily.

The problem with realization of the latest attack plan was there are others capable of standing up to the Changelings. With Discord on Equestria's side it'll be next to impossible. Even without Discord the ponies, and the animals, won't let things slide without resistance.
