I would have to strongly disagree. I don't believe Ozpin to be only in this for the greater good. He cares about his students, enough to guide them amd inform them that the world is a place where strength will not guarantee a safe place. True, he hasn't been the most loving character, but I'd like to think he expresses his care in a different way. As for him allowing his students to be wreck less, ozpin is a man who thinks ahead and always has his bases covered. I'm sure whatever activities that the students engage in at his school that might cause harm to them are monitored, like in the forest. One thing I'll point or is that these are people training to defend the world against vicious beasts. Babying them won't do any good and not throwing them into real situations won't prepare them. Do I think Ozpin would sacrifice their lives for the greater good? Maybe as a last resort. And that's pushing it. I'm not saying my views are correct, but based on what I've seen from him and comparing him to other masters from different shows, I just conclude thst at the heart of it is a caring man who loves his students but isn't blinded by that. His duty is to remain vigilant.

Regarding the wizard of Oz. What many people don't know, is that the Wizard was a great man. After he was exposed he trained under Glinda to become a great magician and even helped dorothy many times in her other adventures down the road. I don't know if roosertteeth has delved into the original stories of Oz buut just another angle to look at Ozpin from.
