PiratePony

We've speculated on whether or not Sunset Shimmer would be an alicorn upon returning to Equestria based on different merits and observations. But what of human Twilight Sparkle, also know affectionately as Sci-Twi? "Pish posh, silly Pirate Pony," says Devil Rarity. "Twilight is indeed an alicorn in Equestria so her two-legged friend would be the same!" "Just a moment," says her Hay-loed twin. "Our Twilight earned her princess status and alicorn transformation through caring for her friends, learning the magic of friendship and completing Starswirl's spell! Human Twilight did none of those things. Therefore, she would be, dare I say: just a unicorn!" What do you think? Which fictional argument in my head is correct and why...or is there some other option?
