She's a bit older than the other Disney Princesses. The oldest are Cinderella and Tiana (19) and the youngest is Snow White (14) and maybe Moana, but I think she's 15-16. That could be another reason why she isn't official. Same with Meg and Kida. Anna and Elsa got their own franchise, same with Tinkerbell. Wendy, Alice and Elionwy are probably too young, and I guess Giselle doesn't really qualify, since she spent most of her movie being a real person and not animated, like the other princesses. That's my theory; all official Disney Princesses have to be animated teenagers.

Because Esmeralda wasn't the first heroine to pray to God (Snow White did as well) or the least modest dressed (Ariel, Jasmine, Pocahontas) and the plot wasn't that dark. Snow White and Tangled had dark plots as well, just to name a few. But idk.
