In general, if a flashback is unnecessary in context it shouldn't be included in a scene, especially if the actual details are something you could figure out later on without making it seem contrived.

That said, I feel like there are a few instances of scenes where flashbacks could've been useful (The first one coming to mind would be when Blake started discussing Adam in V2C10, which would've been really helpful for those few people who neglected to watch the trailers.)

It also depends on whether you consider the scenes that discuss previous events but in a current setting, such as when Blake begins recounting her childhood to Sun in "Black and White" or when Yang talks to Blake about her own and Ruby's childhood in "Burning the Candle," from which they specifically cut away from the main story to talk about past events.
