That’s a fair point. Also the line in “What it Sounds Like” when Rumi says “I don’t know why I didn’t trust you to be on my side”? There is a canon answer to that, and it’s “Celine.”
So the film has an obvious villain, Ganon or whatever his name is. The main demon king who appears as a bonfire on the mountain. But sometimes there’s another villain, and it’s someone you don’t expect, someone who is presented as good. In a sense, the real villain is Celine. If she had taught the girls tolerance and acceptance, the whole conflict of the movie would never have happened. She doesn’t even have to be working with the demons or anything nefarious like that, she has her own reasons for being an antagonist. But she strikes me as a kind of Senator Palpatine, from the Star Wars prequels. Pretends to be your friend while undermining you from the shadows. And I like that. Story-wise, anyway.
