Since Roman is a stereotypical stylish criminal, I can see how the idea of him training could seem weird. But he wasn't always a criminal, he could have learned his Semblance when he was younger. Also Neo is her own person, despite being partially based on a genderbent Roman sketch. Just because Neo has or done something does not mean Roman has the same or would have done the same. They're their own characters.
