The show isn't set specifically around any particular character. And as I said before, each of the CMC, separately and together, have had multiple episodes centered around them. This isn't true for any other character. No, not even Trixie, Discord or Luna. Each of them were in multiple episodes, but only the CMC have had episodes from their POV.

As for those tweets, they do give me hesitation. But they are by no means proof. For one, it is only really one tweet, since the second is commenting directly on the first. For another, it was in a series of joke tweets, so it can't exactly be called a serious source. For a third, I would say that main characters are decided by how a story is written, not by whomever may be writing it. If Tolkein had said that the goblins killed in The Hobbit when Gandalf smites them on their doorstep were main characters, would those goblins be main characters? Of course not. The share they have in the story decides that, not the author's word.

I'll wait for more input, I guess.
