I think this alicorn nonsense just opens up the possibility for things that will be more harmful to Twilight's development and role than it will add anything to it. I have absolutely zero interest in seeing her paraded around and showered with royal worship, she should be allowed to live as a normal pony without the overblown status of a mere title getting in the way of it. I'm not worried about her personality changing, but this is one case where I don't want to see anyone getting the royal treatment. The formula was fine as is, but if you absolutely had to make some big change, this was a stupid choice to settle on. We got three princesses already, satisfy ourselves with that and leave the Mane Six to their Elements of Harmony work, that's high status enough. The tiara, the dresses, the "Your Majesties" are absolutely not necessary.
