Also, can you imagine trying to avoid a buzzsaw coming after you? Ruby started working with Crescent Rose at Signal Academy, which is the equivalent (in my mind) of a Jr. High. Yang entered Beacon when she was supposed to, age 17, so we can assume that people begin at Signal at either 13 or 14. Ruby had at least one year at Signal, learning under Qrow, to learn how to use Crescent Rose.

And yes, this weapon, as described, would be absolutely terrifying to fight against. XD I agree with your point, but I'm pretty sure Beacon is supposed to be more analogous to college and Signal high school.
