Jaune doesn't have to attract extra aggro on Grimm. Ren just needs to reduce the aggro of himself, Nora, and Pyrrha using his semblence. That falls apart as an argument for multiple reasons:

1) I'm talking specifically about V1 Jaune, since V4 Jaune is actually worth something at the very least. So by extension, if you say Ren, that would be V1 Ren, not V4 Ren.

2) Ren, in V4, apparently can't move while maintaining his Semblance on a distant, still target, even when the distance wasn't huge. V1 Ren would have an even harder time doing the same with 3 different targets, all moving. Even holding it on 1 moving target would've been more difficult for V1 Ren, than it was for V4 Ren to do it on a not-moving Jaune.

Not to mention that trying that effectively makes him incapable of fighting while he's keeping the effect up, and, it would drain his Aura too much to abuse it like that. That same Aura he uses and needs for his fancy Force Palms and even to take hits without getting KOd.

3) By the logic behind that strategy, why not make Jaune lose aggro and let the enemy focus on Pyrrha or Nora, the 2 members of JNPR who actually could Tank well and deal some damage, back in V1.
