Again. You're assuming everything based on Atlas as a person, not as a kingdom. A slap on the wrist to the army, yeah. But not the kingdom, neither Penny's father. She even said so herself: My father loves me very much. She might be a robot but that doesn't mean she's a piece of junk they can replace. Even her own bodyguards get along with Penny as they do know her father and don't treat her like a thing since one of them danced with her. So just because Ironwood messed up does not mean that the entire kingdom has to answer for his mistake.

Plus the one with his job at stake is Ozpin, not Ironwood. You said if something like Breach happens again but if that's the case then the one paying will be not only Ironwood but also Ozpin who has received a warning from the council already. If his military falls then it will be Atlas' fault, not Penny, not Ironwood. Atlas' fault. So Penny doesn't have to be exiled from her kingdom neither will have to be placed at Ozpin's care. And again: Why Team JNPR? Penny is meant to be stronger than them, to know everything they are still learning so it doesn't make sense Ozpin places Penny in a 1 year student team. If anything, it will make more sense if she's on an senior team. no, I'm assuming Atlas as a legal entity, making errors that violate Remnant's version of the Geneva convention, that their lawyers/politicians can distance themselves from by selling out Polendina and Ironwood by claiming they did the program without their knowledge, at which point Atlas ceases to have a claim that she is their property, and if Ironwood, Polendina or some other general stake claim they face legal repercussions and paying back Atlas for Penny's materials cost.

Ozpin in no way has his job at stake, Ironwood has taken full responsibility for defense of the tournament and school because he sold Ozpin out over a non-casualty crisis, which got Ozpin demoted essentially.

If Ironwood fucks up and people die it's not only his ass on the line because it was his job, it is also his ass on the line because he ousted Ozpin for the job, which was not(actually likely was, but politics) the councils fault.
