Wow... Meghan was right, just as simple a thing as giving Scootaloo a house has been almost as controversial as Daring Do being an in-universe real pony!

I'll say this much: I'm convinced that stuff does not happen in the show for no reason. Anonymous background ponies are easy to manufacture so the fact that Scootaloo's parents are being hidden from us in one way or another will turn out to be significant for the character. Orphan? Possibly but equally possible is that her parents are prominent ponies and the team is storing up the 'wham' for a suitable episode.
