Exactly. We didn't directly observe Qrow turning into a Qrow. He could have some sort of inherent connection with crows. Or, as Lord Jaric said, it could have just been a kind of symbolism (RWBY's big on that.)

And even if it does end up confirmed that Qrow can shapeshift, it could be explained by any new Remnant fairytale. There's also Qrow's thick connection with Ozpin, which might suggest that Ozpin died, and Qrow inherited his powers, much like that of the maidens (though, I doubt it will turn out to be THAT simple). There are so many different posibilities, and, again, there's no confirmation. It's not correct to make assumptions like this.

I'm not sure what all this "keeping it" business is about, but we're certainly not moving that we should GET RID of this mention of Qrow's powers. It's definitely something that should be noted on the wiki. And if notoriety is an issue, then we could easily give this ability it's own prominent section on Qrow's character page, with a special subheading, and even fan speculation regarding specifics as to whatever it is Qrow can apparently do.

The point is; classifying Qrow's crows as a semblance at this point in time is needlessly presumptuous. Things don't have to be so rigid, you know.
