Observations: RT has a habit of reacting to viewer feedback. As it happens, I can't think of any examples right now (yay me, I'm so valid), but I know it's happened in RvB several times. RvB SPOILERS: I'm pretty sure they even admitted it when they talked about how Captain Flowers tripping over a wire and that changing the names for the replacements that would be sent to blood gultch should someone die. The list changed from freelancers to the characters we know and love today, Caboose among them. This could have either ment that the computer chose a bunch of random people from the red and blue database, OR that all characters that were shipped in to the RvB conflict after Flowers' death were actually freelancers.

That being said, I think they will give Yang her arm back. Eventually. To me, it seems less that the people want Yang to get her arm back and more to the point that people don't want to see Yang disappear from the series for any length of time. HOWEVER, I hope it's either extremely unique (as happens to be their pattern with this kind of stuff) or it's blatently generic (so we can move on). I don't think anyone wants to watch a pitty party with Yang just moping around in the background. That would just be depressing.
