And of course, RT can always pull the "SEMBLANCE" card like they did with Jaune and Hazel and to an extent Ruby after V3. ...

Does that mean he is dead? Even though RT said he is (And I still take that with a grain of salt consider RT's history), I still agree his survival is the most plausible. Issue was, does RT have any way of using him? Wasn't that why they killed him off? They couldn't find anyway to utilize him? Roman is dead because RT said so, no other reason. As SYUTK said, he was inside the stomach of a Grimm, unless that is an insta-kill, he effectively was inside a sandbag as the explosion and crash killed that Grimm pretty quickly afterward... pretty much the first thing that might have killed him was suffocation or an acid bath or some kind of portal to the void.
