3-(which would need to involve some kind of apocalypse or other extinction type event)

4-and when the only reasons to kill off JNR are to shrink the ranks of the main cast and push forward RWBY that removes half of the point. 1-I seriously cannot see how such a thing would have anything to do with a mass extinction....you also sound shortsighted. You can't see Jaune surviving long without either, or even being capable of being sent back alone. That would only apply to current Jaune, which wouldn't necesarily be Jaune when he dies. He could well be a real Hunter by then, capable of fighting well without any help.

2-Yes, they probably would........during that arc. It wouldn't really crush RWBY's impact.

3-No it doesn't. It doesn't need any kind of apocalyptic event at all. Not even for Nora's death, if Miles wants to allude to Thor's death all he needs is to make her fight a giant King Taijitu. Where do you even get that crazy idea of an apocalypse being necesary?

4-True enough.
