My interpretation of what Mercury said about Pyrrha's Semblance is that it might be a physical touch thing. So she has to actually touch whatever she wants to affect. Or it might need a pulse for more scattered things like the soda cans from episode 1. I also think she doesn't want to show how powerful she really is, which is why she hides it. Her look when Jaune said the boys are probably fighting over her could mean that they aren't because she's too tough. And given how Mercury decided to forfeit after realising she had polarity could mean that more people wouldn't fight with her if they knew. That's just my thoughts.
