To elaborate... Ruby is unskilled socially and prefers the presence of her sister and her HCSS. Weiss is equally unskilled socially due to her own pomp and circumstance and so only speaks when spoken to or when she needs to deride someone for their idiocy. Hmm... Maybe hers would be the perception as she perceives the idiocy in others.

Anyway, moving on... Ruby relies more on her instinct, acting quickly and trusting her actions to be correct in the moment. Weiss as seen in Episode 6 is a thinker who even has to consciously remind herself how to combat an opponent.

Lastly... perceptionists prefer to leave decisions open which fits Ruby's style (especially since she can't handle being in someone's negative opinion). Judgmentalists prefer to have matters settled which is more Weiss' schtick (although in her case, she wants it settled her way).
