I wonder if that's compatible with canon anymore. Magical Mystery Cure seems to show that a pony ascends to alicornhood when they achieve some feat that nopony else has ever done before.

If the book claiming that Cadence was born a pegasi becomes canonical, it will be interesting to learn what Cadence did to ascend; perhaps it was some feat with the air/weather magic that seems to be an inherit talent in all pegasi.
