I think there is a bit of a discrpency here. Didn't Monty mention that there is a 1/2 fanus that we probably met? Then in the stream they said there is no 1/2. I believe his quote was more along the lines of "Will we see the child of both a human and a faunus, yes, in fact you may already have...." and this predates Raven's appearance, so it would not have been her.

However the problem with Lilith's Q&A question lies in the question itself... you only need a basic knowledge of algebra to know it boils down to:

Human + Faunus = Human or Faunus or (half Faunus?)

Now what exactly is a Faunus?

a Faunus is strictly a human with animal perks, or human+

In other words... what would lessen the humanity in the pairing? the answer is nothing, you could not therefore be half human.

On the other hand, what would make one less of a faunus? When the only standing definition is "more than human" this is impossible.

Now there are semantics that could apply such as junk DNA, but Miles and Kerry aren't geneticists, and as we don't even know Remnant has that field of study at our current level, even in universe there likely isn't enough to quibble.
