somewhat long explanation?

Both yang and pyrrha got one off descriptions. They were both a sentence long. Abilities don't need discussion or foreshadowing unless they play a critical role in plot progression or stagnation. Many series don't fall back on banter forabilities and there's no need to unless the ability is expkicitly brought up.

Statements for or against it aren't necessary. It's not a crux for the series as time travel would be for other stories.

And a small cast in no way calls for overly convoluted (that suggestion wasn't complex) relationships. We've already got 30+ characters and there is no need to senselessly attribute idiotic relationships for a sense of connectivity.

You should never go the kingdom hearts route of 'everyone is ansem' to create conflict and tension between characters.

Yang, Weiss and Ruby do not need to have personal connections to adam, cinder, emerald, roman or mercury to have legitimate strife and opposition.
