To counter your rebutal, those millions of people in Remnant have Aura, not Semblances. Semblances are projections of Aura that most people mainifest if they train to harness it into a Semblance. Civilians don't always train to even manifest a Semblance. I would venture a guess to say that not even most police and military have the ability to use a Semblance. The only practical reason anyone would have a Semblance is if they need to use it or can manifest it. Huntsmen and certain individuals that fight can have Semblances for our legitimate writing purposes. The RWBY writers as well.
