Of course, if people really wanted to see her as a unicorn again, perhaps they could throw something in.

Perhaps there was some flaw in either Star Swirl's and/or Celestia's spells, or something unique about Twilight Sparkle that resists the change. I'm sort of going to Super Mario Bros. logic - maybe she needs a "power-up" every so often or something.

Or, maybe she acquires a power that Celestia hadn't figured out yet - the ability to change back and forth at will. That wouldn't make Twilight superior, just that she may have discovered something that Celestia missed. [focusing on one thing can cause you to overlook something else] [also, that might make it easy on animators who might forget about the change just as one would forget to write the current year on their check shortly after January 1]

[BTW, I'm not against Twilight's change (in fact I'm looking forward to the figure they will have to release at some point), it will just take some getting used to.]
