But Hornets to sting for the sake of stinging. They sting because they are trying to protect their hive at all costs. By your logic, does that make the CoG any different? Vale is apparently a stronghold for the CoG in Remnant, so it can be argued that the CoG are acting for the same reason that Hornets swarm and sting, to protect their homes which Humans and Faunus continue to encroach on.
