Technically she died and was reborn as Alicorn, so yea, Twilight is not going to die any time soon.
Also I think that in storyline, Celestia not forced Twilight to transform, she was just there to calm down Twilight and watch how she transform ( Celestia proved to be a bit of stalker ), Twilight started her own transformation when she finished spell ( though Celestia could tell her that finishing spell would transform her so she had a choice, but it would ruin the surprise ).

I don't think Twilight actually solved anything, she only undid her mistake and edited Starswirl's spell to something else. Why couldn't she just send it back with a note saying "This spell is dangerous!"?

Celestia asked her to fix it, and Twilight fear to disappoint her more than anything else.
Also, Twilight already passed many challenges and learned a lot in 3 seasons. Season finale was not really a lesson, but using all Twilight learned to solve problem ( Celestia expected her to cause by giving her unknown spell without any warning ), basically that spell was a final push Twilight needed to ascent, no lesson, just testing all she learned ( you may arque that Crystal Empire was also a test, but in the end there was a lesson that Twilight should ignore when Celestia say "you must save this empire alone " and just kick villains flanks alongside her friends ), in season 3 finale she did not learn anything, she just used what she learned.

...That means Twilight's way too scared to upset her own mentor, and that she'd rather obey than give Cel a lecture on what she's doing wrong. (You think I'd be frightened of upsetting my leader? In Metroid Fusion, Samus went against Adam's idea of letting the Galactic Federation capture SA-X, as it's a way too dangerous being and should be destroyed because the Federation wouldn't be able to control it)
What did you/I/we learn?
NEVER be frightened of going against your boss' orders! Twilight and her friends should've made objections to Cel rather than asslicking her. (Just like me doing Robbing RariFruit because I'm against the Insanity)
NOTES: Asslicking is doing what your leader tells you to do just to please them.

In Twilight case it is a bit more complicated.
On one side she have incredible trust in her mentor, that is why she willingly keep blind eye on being send to face Nightmare Moon without any informations, or when Celestia send her and her friends to find elements without assisting them ( Celestia and guards could search for elements and give them to Twilight and her friends, but she used mane 6 as canon meat, because only the moment Discord was sure that he won, he stopped paying attention to them, so all there was left to do was to recover mane 6 and send them again Discord.
Celestia is manipulative and tricky mentor, but Twilight trust her to a fault, even after Celestia made her princess, she just accepted it thinking that it is for the best ( Celestia did not cause Twilight ascension, she just tried to speed it up with not working spell ).
So yes, Twilight first problem is that she have to much trust and respect towards her leader to say no, even when she know that she is being manipulated.
Other problem is that Twilight biggest fear is to not be Celestia student any more, fear of disappointing her.
Long story short, Twilight will not say no and never blade princess for her mistake or for manipulating behind the scene because she respect and fear her to much.

....That is it, I don't want to see Twilight in any more episodes after this three-parter. She's no longer useful for me to see now that she's proven to be gullible, unless Season 4 indicates that Lauren Faust's intention of making Cel a queen didn't get denied; Celestia definitely has something dark in the back of her skull, which'd explain why we've never got any backstories even for Cadence.
I bet her evil look is pink, like the toys'd foreshadow. (Give her a speech of reasons why she sucks, Blueblood)

Celestia is not evil, she just prefer to guide from distance, but she mean well.
Twilight play along because she trust her ( she is not gullible, it is just that after so many years studding under Celestia wing, it has become her fear to be rejected by her ).

She isn't evil? Heh, then explain to me why Twilight didn't react to becoming a princess. (Plus, if she means well, I'm not sure I'd listen without feeling like saying objections)
I do believe Cel has something going on about her, which could be why she hasn't got her own episode yet.

There are so many things I could say about this but I'm sleepy right now. What a shame, I'll miss out on a perfect opportunity to say something witty...
