The boy laughed at her comment, shaking his head quickly.

'It's my job to stop it.'

   [He straightened his tie then ran a hand through his hair; making it stick up every which way.]

--She sits down, looking around. By the looks of it, she was in, what, medieval times? The closest to knights they had in the many planets she had visited looked nothing like that. But, she wasn't able to go back in time. Maybe this world was just stuck in this time period.

Afraid there isn’t any real explanation other than “Because they wanted it that way”. I suppose part of it might have been not wanting to have to deal with the logistics of getting a mermaid in different worlds. Or because they liked Ariel’s story better without her having to be a kidnapped victim (she parallels Sora in a lot of ways, more so than a lot of the other Disney characters I’d say). I think they also really wanted to keep her as a party member, someone the players could fight alongside. If they had made her a PoH, then they wouldn’t be able to have her as a party member, because  at the end of her world’s story, she would be kidnapped and then when a player would want to replay Atlantica, they wouldn’t be able to have Ariel in her party. I think they also wanted to introduced the plot of PoH’s early, and having Alice get kidnapped in the first Disney world accomplished that. You couldn’t really have Atlantica first because it’s a difficult world that requires the player to have gotten used to the mechanics and whatnot.

So, I guess in summation, because they wanted her more as a party member than a Damsel in Distress, because they wanted her story and her parallels to Sora, because they didn’t want to worry about the logistics of mermaids in other worlds, and because they wanted a PoH to be kidnapped early on in the game for the player to be introduced to the plot and Alice + Wonderland worked a lot better for a variety of reasons than Ariel + Wonderland.
