Holy balls. That's one insightful post.

So then why is Weiss seeing herself when she's looking at the armour? She shatters it. Shatters it like a mirror. She must really hate herself...

But that's not reflected in how Weiss acts. She's arrogant, and incredibly sure of herself. She's had a life where everything she's ever wanted has been given to her, with little fuss. I don't want to be too quick to demonise her father- maybe he's not the problem, though it is quite heavily implied. We gotta remember, he probably does love Weiss. But, like any parent, he doesn't always make her life easy.

Flip the coin, maybe Weiss does have that "bird in a cage" facet. She has that rebellious stigma- sick of her life being decided for her. I can't see anyone else who could cause her to act like that, other than her parents. I suppose even if you do get everything you want, that does not make up for your life being controlled by someone other than you.

Doing some research into the Snow White motif here, and thinking Snow White was chased away from her home by the Hunstman. Maybe Weiss was chased away from her family somehow? Who is the Evil Queen in Weiss' story?
