I can see the points of each side, but do remember that if you remove Frollo from the equation, virtually all of the dark material within Hunchback would go with him. As stands by the original definition - that of the Knight of Cerebus - Frollo very much applies as he is in a horribly stark contrast to the movie's primarily lighthearted tone and he alone causes the tone of the film to inconsistently fluctuate. The movie has a dark opening, but that is not the primary tone of the film and you could argue the only reason why is it so is because of the presence of Frollo.

Now, if we've explicitly changed the definition of the category is for a villain who comes to alter the tone of the show later in the work, I can see Frollo possibly being exempt. But I still stand Frollo does not set the tone so much as he darkens it.
