Cozy Glow theory

I had the theory that she was Chrysalis (most of us thought that), until, of course, the finale came around, and it turned out to be her own villian!

However, I'm still convinced she's Chrysalis. Why? Well, it may sound convoluted, but think about it.

• She was very weary of not being uncovered all the way to the end, only showing her true intentions to Starlight (and, well, the tree). But then, once she was uncovered, she went all out screaming, and in general being very obvious, almost like she wanted to be captured.

• Chrysalis has been experimenting with the tree's capabilities. She now knows it can differentiate between true people and clones. (And, if she is, indeed, CG, she also knows that it is sentinent, and extremely powerful, but doesn't intervene until "friendship" is around)

• We know that the door to Tartarus can be opened in some way, or that there is another exit. (Back in S4, when Tirek escaped, or even before, when Cancerberus escaped).

• Alternatively, if that "other way" was fixed, we know that Chrysalis can easily get out of a cage, and, when the mystical beasts in Tartarus get freed (Flutershy's courtesy) she can probably get out too.

• Also, I can't imagine a background for a pony like Cozy. I'd understand a controlling little foal (ponies tend to be impressive at what they do), but a foal that can move a mob like that? WITHOUT using her cuteness as her main tactic? And that also knows how to contact Tirek? Not to say that she can use (what I asume is) very advanced magic, without even being a unicorn.

• Pony villans usually get redeemed. Why is Cozy Glow different? Is what she did worse than Starlight? Her using her own name to contact Tirek was probably on purpose (she planned that whole thing, after all. She was the one to suggest to go to Tirek). Why would she expose herself thar way on purpose? She WANTED to be sent to Tartarus.

In conclusion, Cozy Glow is Chrysalis. She now has access to whatever she's looking for in Tartarus (probably more knowledge about draining magic). She has a plan to get out, and probably won't be bothered in at least some months (until Fluttershy can convince the princesses to free the monsters).
