As the grandmother of an autistic child, I do not find your comment amusing.

Chemo flushed out my sense of humor. I'll be getting it back sometime tomorrow.

It is not messed up logic. The same logic that prevents... Anastasia (from the eponymous Don Bluth film) from joining the franchise (not Disney) prevents Vanellope von Schweetz from joining it (non-cartoonish humanoids) or Melody (sequel) or Leia (live action and other franchise).

The inclusion uses only Disney canon information; for example; Disney's Eilonwy is NOT a sorceress (yet) in her one film; she is also NOT a redhead and does not prefer walking barefoot; notable features of the original source Eilonwy. This means that Disney's Eilonwy cannot belong to a hypothetical franchise of "Barefoot Heroines" or "Disney Redheads".

In Meg's specific case, no mention of her noble birth is ever hinted at in the film or in the TV show. In fact, small details hint at more humble origins. Therefore, canonically, she is not a princess by birth... but she is married to the son of the king of the gods.

I suspect that her exclusion is based on the simple fact that she sold her soul to Hades (i.e. "the devil"). This is not the sort of thing that goes down well when being considered for a role model...
