Is Spike a big enough deal up north that he's getting themed merch made in his likeness, or does he just want attention so much that he makes toothbrushes and gives them to friends?

I think it's them being clever in making it obvious 'Twilight was inventing an excuse' - so she stole Spike's toothbrush, and that Spike-theme is the very subtle cue that that's what's going on

And it was a good episode. I'm not sure Starlight should be encouraged to "go with her gut" more than she already does, but as a princess episode, this was pretty fun.

And they did resolve that better.
"You're fully capable of ruling any time of the day or night" instead of "Haha, get in your own little corner and stay there" like we got in this episode

Well, the conflict was more grounded in the comic. It was "I think your job is easy" vs "I have no clue what you do".
Gloomy Rube wrote:Yeah, exactly. They kinda overblew the problem... a lot in this episode.I mean, part of that was just Starlight overreacting as her teacher has taught her to, but it was really strange how much they forced the conflict in this one. I honestly have trouble seeing Luna as being THIS GRUMPY

If we accept that as a premise, it explains a lot - there just was no Warden of Dreams during Luna's exile, and that's where Sunbutt falls in being able to handle things.
