She was also willing to commit a multitude of crimes, of which includes holding a person against their will, in order to construct a fake historical site for the sole purpose of abusing her powers. If she was going to go end up abusing her powers anyway, she might as well had done it sooner and save the townsfolk the grief of being terrorized for however long they endured.

So she won’t use magic on a citizen of Equestria because in her own words, “I can’t abuse my power,” yet she’s perfectly justified in constructing a fake historical site for the sole purpose of abusing her power…

Town gets raided and a building burnt down, along with friends getting smashed through walls: Do nothing.
 
Fake historical building that was made that way through illegally modifying legal documents gets smashed: Finally use magic
