Maybe because such a large chunk of the fandom didn't listen to the explanation in volume 3, so they felt the need to reiterate "No, no, guys, only young women become Maidens-- guys, Jaune wouldn't become a Maiden-- No, hey, guys... please." I never got why the fandom thought that. Even if that wasn't the case why would Jaune need more powers when he hasn't developed what he already has? I don't want Ruby to be a Maiden for similar reasons but at least she's in the actual running.

But from a writing perspective you usually go over these rules if you're planning on using them soon. I wonder if the volume will end with it happening to the Spring Maiden. If for example she dies before Tyrian can retrieve her and sees Nora therefore her last thoughts are of her.
