Perhaps someone can enlighten me here.

I've noticed that Starlight's control over the village in The Cutie Map is quite often associated with some sort of actual mind-control spell, both by members of the fandom and by the show itself... or at least that was my impression whenever the subject was brought up (with bizarre frequency) in season six, and considering the premise of Every Little Thing She Does. Aside from the magic to remove cutie marks, however, I never got the sense her management of the town involved anything but coercion and deceit. Did I miss something?
