It was confirmed that Aurora's parents, Briar Rose and King Stephan had true love. Why didn't their daughter have powers like Emma?

When you think about it: Emma shouldn't be the only one with powers. She broke the curse because her parent's love is the way to break the curse and she was a product of it.
Other than that they have said: "Of the truest love" which is how they describe Snow and Charming love. I guess no one's love is stronger or comparable to theirs. But then you wonder why would Baby Neal would be ordinary? They are the same product of true love. I guess Emma has powers because Truest of Love gives special powers, ordinary true love doesn't.
Or my alternate theory: The writers didn't think this all the way through.
^Neal is probably to young to show signs of having powers now. maybe when he gets older though?
One thought I've had is that because Emma's birth was stopped (temporarily) by King George poisoning Snow and that it was magic that made her fertile again, that's why Emma has powers, because her existence is as a result of magic.
Because Emma is the savior, her magic comes from that. And practice.
I mean,ost things have reasonable explanations, I don't see why everyone wants to call everything a plot hole or retcon or poor planning lol
But her magic came from being the product of true love. Only recently, season 4 especially, have they used "Savior magic". Beforehand they always said product of true love and magic like that. Why would her magic start with the effects of true love's kiss if it's just light magic?
I would consider it poor planning because they seemed to cover it up after they put more thought into it in later seasons. Just like the whole True Love vs Soulmate debate. They realized that they had no clue what the difference is and now Regina refers to Robin as true love and no longer soul mate.
dang, my reply got eaten ;.;
