Am I the only one that thinks Ruby does indeed have character development?

V1-3 Ruby was a happy go lucky, naive young girl with a simple aspiration to save people. She had a romanticized view of the world and being a Huntress, and thought that the world was at peace.

Post time-skip, we can see that Ruby is less happy. The Fall of Beacon and the death of her friends shook her and woke her up, realizing the grim (pun half intended) situation the world is. In other words, Ruby grew up and learned that not everything is sunshine and rainbows.
