As far as keeping hope, Neal dying would be the most devastating to that theme.
We all know whether he is downright killed or sacrifices his life, it will be extremely devastating for every character (even as Molly mentioned, Regina will feel the consequences with Henry, etc). We didn’t even see that portion when Neal fell down the portal in S2/s3A because Henry was kidnapped. But no matter how heroic and valiant they make it, it will be a feeling of “the end”. This is it. This is a gigantic hole, and it will take its toll.If Hook sacrifices his life and does the heroic thing, while Hook fans and CSers alike will mourn, it will be a different kind of mourning. It will be a pirate becoming a hero. As devastating as it will be for them, it will be like Rumple sacrificing his life-it will exude hope in a way that this show does. Someone who consistently does cowardly things, with a glimmer of hope, back and forth, back and forth, finally doing the heroic, brave thing. Neal has already done heroic things and already sacrificed so much. It will be a sad sad story of a boy, then a man who could never ever get it right no matter how much he sacrificed for anyone. That doesn’t give me hope. That makes me feel like… “the end”. That’s it for him and there’s no more hope.
I’ve said before, I don’t hope Hook dies. NOT AT ALL. But if/when it happens, I will probably cry like I did at the end of Going Home. Because it will stir a place in my heart that is inside all of us– we want to believe people can change. Hook desired to change for Bae, even though we know he had a hidden agenda. Bae was his connection to Milah, so I have to believe there was a part of him that wanted to, even if he didn’t know how and had no intention of actually doing it. The want to want to change is sometimes what gets the process going. Not even the want. The want to want. I’ve seen it happen with people I’ve known in my life even.
Hook’s conversation with Regina in 3×01 will always stay with me. And even their convos at the end of s2. Hook has this conflict within himself and I think the navy captain from his good form days has been lured out by the heroes around him.
I’m not saying Hook’s death would give people hope. I’m saying the circumstances around his death could actually speak more, mean more, and be of greater value to the lessons and story of hope they’re trying to portray than killing off Neal.
Sigh. Just kinda threw up all my thoughts and not sure how to close…#hopeForNeal

more from Adam:
“I was misquoted. I never said that. Eddy said something like that. But it was about character growth not time on show.”
“well please let them know that the answer would have probably been similar for Neal. What was printed wasn’t entirely accurate”
“what we meant was he’s staying for the purpose of character growth. Just like all the characters. Growth is impt 4all”
“… But on phone interviews things get missed all the time. Happens on most interviews we do…”
“misquote. I didn’t. Eddy was talking about character growth and hook. Something might’ve gotten lost on phone. It happens”
“believe ME. It was honest mistake. It was a phone interview and I’m sure Diane transcribed what she heard…”
@_applebombz well please let them know that the answer would have probably been similar for Neal. What was printed wasn't entirely accurate

@_applebombz that’s right. What’s in the interview is a misquote. Not Diane’s fault. Phone calls can get garbled.

<Nothing against the lady, but I unfollowed her some time last year because she had said something in some interview that was very questionable to me, and, her tweets didn’t sit well with me. I really can’t remember what they were about at this point, that’s how long ago it was. Really, nothing against her, but when I found out she was doing the interview, I knew to take it with a grain of salt. What Adam and Eddy say is what they say; obviously she didn’t go into her own interpretation when you have quotes here, but like Adam said, things happen. Things get misquoted. If he says he got misquoted, I believe him. It’s not unlikely for that to happen quite a few times in phone interviews like these.

They’ve posted a sneak peek:
Shrug off those #OnceUponATime hiatus blues! Our exclusive interview with the series creators is less than 24 hours away.
Here’s a tiny extract from the interview:
Eddy Kitsis: “Last year, we really understood that Rumple is someone who regretted the decision he made. This year, we really wanted to deepen WHY. I mean, it’s seems pretty obvious in Season 1 that a man who let go of his child for power would have regrets. What the Peter Pan story did was let the audience understand every decision he made, because Rumple was trying to not only make it up to his son, he was trying not to be like his father. So last year when we had him get on that ship, we knew. When we said that the “boy would be his undoing”, that’s when we came up with the Neverland plot. As you see with Rumple, who’s a very difficult man to love, he was haunted a lot. It was very hard for him to make the right decision, and he tried to exhaust every other option until sacrificing himself was the only one left”.

A thought I had this evening:
Not only did the first half of the season deal with the consequences of Neal’s death, but the second season will be dealing with the Swan fire family being separated AGAIN… and a heartfelt reunion AGAIN. between father and son, Emma and Neal, and… father and son. We just had a happy reunion with all of those… and we are getting ANOTHER one when Emma and Henry are returned to Neal and their family. I am sure we will see Neal dealing with the separation in the EF flashbacks. We have to be. And I’m sure once Henry and Emma get their memories, they will be focusing on seeing their family again– that includes Neal. Two separations and two reunions in ONE SEASON. I have the hardest time believing there’s going to be another separation, a permanent separation, by way of Neal’s death. So sure we’ve all be thinking, “they just thought he was dead!!” But this is the first time I’ve really contemplated the current separation and the subsequent reunion. That’s all a factor here and gives me much encouragement 🙂
rAlso, this new line from Adam about the storyline demanding a death– sounds more and more like someone will NEED to sacrifice their life in order to help fight the WW / save everyone.
