Weiss having zero plot significance even as a member of the main 4. (Seriously, RT...step it up. Weiss hasn't had a proper fight with real stakes since Volume 2 with Banesaw. Make that Em v. Weiss tease come true in one of these coming Volumes (sooner rather than later, preferably.) It's cliche, but they could go for the "Impecunious youth despises Rich person for having it all and not knowing of their struggles" kind of angle with Emerald and Weiss, seeing as Emerald is all but stated to have lived on the streets. Again, cliche, but it's one way they could make it happen.

That or the only reason Weiss was fighting Emerald in the Opening was because the others all had matches with someone connected to them and Weiss got the leftover.
