Maybe it’s a bloodline thing? Notice Oscar doesn’t live with his parents; Ozpin could have expected to go to Oscar’s mother or father but they’re dead, and he could be the closest living blood relative to Ozpin. Oscar’s Aunt being skipped can be explained away as her being a marriage relative, the sibling of the person who married Ozpin’s blood relative.
