Look, not a single ship right now makes any sense in this fandom unless is JaunexPyrrha (They even have their own theme song). Ruby is shipped with everyone including a beowolf and saying things like she's too young for Jaune applies to everyone else in Beacon since she's the youngest of all the characters so it's practically silly to think about age.

She's going to grow up, the series won't end in their first year at Beacon, if Monty told the writers to watch some Gurren Lagann then maybe he is planning to extend the series and make the characters grow up. They could even graduate from Beacon and that could be the climax of the story since some characters have their own road to follow like Weiss taking over her company.

Back to the ships, none of them make any sense, Nora and Ren are shipped because they are childhood friends, RubyxWeiss or BlakexYang because they are partners, BlakexRen because they are the quite type of person which in my opinion is kind of conformist (I don't know how to call it) but I disagree with it. So yeah, in this fandom where Monty tweets a photo about Weiss with a different sword and the fandom creates crazy theories from Myrtenaster being broken to Ruby dying... I don't think this should be taken seriously.

Well, RubyxJaune seems ok to me but I rather see them growing up together as friends and developing quite a good comical partnership. Since both are too socially awkward I don't think any of them is ready for a relationship and Ruby is too naive and focused on achieving her dream to think about love. Jaune on the other side, he has Pyrrha who is getting all of his attention at the moment after everything that happened before. They have their own teams to lead and their own problems to worry about. Maybe in the future when things become more serious and bad stuff happens, that will be when both of them will become more mature and when that happens, it will be the time to think about their feelings for each other not as friends but as a man and a woman (Ruby is too young and childish to call herself that).
