I agree with the 'Dumbledore' anology, especially as to how he's often portrayed in more moderate fanfictions. It is likely that Ozpin wants to be a reformer - whilst he recognises that something has gone wrong with how soceity works, he wants to change what is wrong from within by a gradual process rather than a traumatic and bloody revolution. He's using his position as an educator to not only ensure that the next generation of Hunters share his ethics but, by extension, to spread his message through those who hear his lectures.

Only time will tell if Cinder can be stopped or limited so that there is a society to be reformed or whether everything will need to be rebuilt from ruins.
