Uh no, that is a different issue. Miguel’s and Cinderella’s conflicts are different, hence the resolutions are also different. Cinderella’s family was evil and abusive. The resolution allowed her to escape their influence. Miguel’s family was overbearing and restrictive, but still loved him. The resolution was that they learned the error of their ways, and embraced his dreams.

It doesn’t change the fact that both stories need the conflict - journey - resolution formula to work and that you’re unhappy about how conflict-y the conflict is.

Seriously, you understand anything about the story at all? It wasn’t about the picture he took, he couldn’t have known the full consequences of that and neither did the audience. But he did other things intentionally: Miguel grave-robbed from a mausoleum on the most sacred day dedicated to the dead — that’s why he was punished. Then he had a chance to go back, but rejected it in order to seek the man he thought was his ancestor (remember, Imelda’s blessing would have been enough and had sent him back once successfully). All this reckless messing with traditions and endangering his own existence is the reason the character needed to have a motivation we could sympathize with.
