She had a temporary disability when she was mute (and I'd never thought about it, but the movie does show how hard it is for her to be understood and how people think she's dumb because she can't speak), but it was caused and solved by magic so it counts as representation as much as all those soap characters that go blind for a month or two.

The secret didn't say anything about representation. But I would say it counts as representation if a mute person sees it and feels represented. Which some will and some won't. There is no universal truth as to whether it counts as representation or not.

(I know we use "dumb" to mean "stupid" now but it literally means "can't speak" so... yeah, Ariel is dumb.)
