See, anon, the only issue here is that Monty had already established that RWBY does not run on fantasy magic. Psychic powers are borderline fantasy magic.

Aura's similarity with ESP ends with it having Clairvoyance. But that's pretty much it. It's more of a spiritual power than a psychic power, as it relies on one's physical capabilities rather than mental capabilities.

Semblance and physical trauma (someone correct me on this, as I don't know the correct term), causes Dust to react in certain ways, not likely from ESP. (It'll be hilarious though. Weiss goes like "Red Dust, explode!" in her mind)
