@Ark: Calm your rocks, Jaune. You're complaining about something different from what Boss was talking about.

Jaune was an underdog, a total noob, who tried to play hero and if it wasn't for Pyrrha would have died in the Tutorial. Jaune, eventually, decided to accept her help, and so she trained him to become a badass.

And even by Vol.4, he's still one of the weakest fighters in the show. Sure, he got a Greatsword of sorts. Sure he can know block hits and all. But his progress has been slow. He hasn't even used his own Semblance yet.

So, taking into account that Jaune wanted to be a Huntsman, sucked hard, has been training hard since then even after Pyrrha died, and still is barely worth shit in combat:  If Oscar, a farmboi in the slums that at first didn't even want to go to Mistral, was instantly a badass out of nowhere, Jaune would have every reason to be jealous.

It does not belittle his character. Such a reaction would be only human; anyone who has put great effort to get where they are, will always be jealous of someone who can get further than them with next-to-no effort at all.

The idea in itself is not bad at all. It's not even cringey. The only question is the execution, whether GMK would do it right or not.
