However based on Cinder's actions once she got to the tower, being sneaky wasn't really needed. Sure Cinder knocks out the first guard, but after that she pretty much turns into a 90s action hero and just goes around beating the crap out of everyone. If her plan was to put some kind of program in the CCT, alerting the guards that someone broke into the tower isn't the best way to go about that. Not to mention the path she took to get to the tower went right past the ballroom. This wouldn't be so bad except she walks on the side of the roof facing the ballroom when in the next shot, she jumps over the peak of the roof; meaning she didn't need to be seen at all. Not to mention she managed to sneak out of the sealed room when Ruby looks away for a moment, so her taking out all the guards seems somewhat unneeded.

Emerald and Mercury didn't need to be at the dance either. First off they had no hope of watching after everyone at the dance as Ruby managed to sneak away unnoticed. Unless Ironwood sleeps in the CCT (unlikely as he has his own fleet of ships to sleep in), they could have snuck in the tower some other night. Cinder's two accomplices would have been better lookouts standing on a rooftop or something. This way they could spot actual threats heading to the tower, instead of just possible threats at the dance.
