The fact that it was accidental is still important because it's not like she actually intended or wanted to murder someone. She didn't mean to. The fact that she showed no remorse is what's important. I actually really don't like when people shit all over someone for something that was completely an accident that was not caused by them being a complete bumbling dipshit.

Weiss' emotions got out of hand, Jacques made her temper flare up even more, the Boarbatusk summon appeared, and she had zero control over it. Should she have had that outburst? No. Though, anger can cause you to do things without meaning to. I know that first-hand, but at least I take responsibility for the fact that the actions I took out of anger were really bad. If I break something because my anger causes me to lash out, the fact of the matter is that I broke it, and I feel bad once I calm down. She didn't realize that she was going to get so worked up and angry that her Semblance would activate by accident, but in the end, she should have taken responsibility for it, realized that her being angry was no excuse for lashing out, and shown remorse for it.

I don't blame her or feel angry about her accident, I blame her and feel disappointed over how she handled it afterward.

It's just a personal thing for me, admittedly. When I was a kid, I had incidents where my "friends" lashed out at me and chewed me out over things that were mere accidents when they had not told me what I needed to know to avoid such accidents. It wasn't my fault because they didn't inform me, but I still got shit on, and it was hurtful and unfair. So I can't help but have that bias when I see a fictional character get shit on for an accident when they didn't blatantly bring it on themselves.
