Yeah, I think Shining Armor would have considered things carefully before putting the disabling spell on his own family, in case their magic was needed for an emergency.

And, even though we see the Royal Sisters fly up to help, they couldn't do much with all the Pegasi under the cloud, so they only supervised off-camera, then retreated when Spike acted on instinct.
