I still prefer 4. Hardlight Generation: He creates a structure similar to the light bridges in Halo 1-3. The issue is whether or not something like that can be achieved through pure Aura, since Cinder and Ren both displayed the ability to create solid circular shields out of their Aura and then Ozpin was later seen creating an entire orb that may or may not have been Aura. I wouldn't call what Cinder and Ren did "solid circular shields", exactly.

With Cinder, it looked as if she just blocked it with her hand, with a small tiny orange wave appearing when the bullets blew up. And with Ren, it was less a shield and more a repulsive wave of sorts.

What Ozpin did did look more like a "Hardlight Barrier", though. And honestly, it must be Aura, otherwise it would be an ass pull. It doesn't quite look like Dust, and his Semblance IIRC was implied to be something Time-related, not Light-related.
