You just don't forget over five or more years of a time happier than she ever spent in the tribe, the man she loved or the child she brought into the world. And once Tai and Yang find her, that mask of hers will start cracking, and denying them at that point will not dissaude them, just the opposite in fact.

And should it come down to her and Yang in combat, she'll be fighting both Yang along with her guilty conscience, as the memories of her previous life finally resurface, and she realizes Tai would be ashamed of what she's done. So she won't be able to focus completely on the fight, she'll be desperately trying to refute her daughter's accusations, but to no avail. She'll know the facts are against her, and realize that killing Yang will not prove her wrong. And if she does manage to  kill Yang, she'll be killing her last chance at redemption. And I severely doubt RT would write such an unbecoming end to Raven, who'll most likely be killed by Qrow in retribution later on down the road if she takes Yang's life. I'm going to take a page from DA's book and say you're making a lot of assumptions here. Like, literally every word of this is assumptions.

What are you basing this off of? We have seen absolutely nothing to suggest what you're saying. How do you know she was happier as a member of Team STRQ than as a member of the tribe? How do you know she loved Tai? How do you know her current personality is a facade?

No goddammit, Yang was already the worst fighter on her team. Raven would literally have to have both hands tied behind her back and be blindfolded to lose to her. You have no reason to assume she feels guilty about a dammned thing, especially Yang. She doen't need to kill her, she can just kick her ass into the ground without batting an eyelid. She's so far out of Yang's league in terms of combat skill that they're not even playing the same sport.
