As far as the brothers aspect, we are operating under the assumption that they are now occupying human bodies. In other words, the rules of how the brothers were allowed to behave may no longer apply. When and how they can wield any abilities may have changed. Qrow claims they abandoned Remnant, but there is no way to know if that part is really true as he himself is only relaying what Ozpin may have told him. Perhaps they did leave Remnant at some point and then returned because one or both of them were dissatisfied with the outcome. I could see the God of Darkness coming back. Struck me as odd that they made Humanity, and assumedly Faunus were apart of that but just considered part of the general humanity, yet left the Creatures of Grimm to screw with and/or murder them. If both gods truly made Humanity to be their last creation, why leave behind the Grimm behind when they would have undoubtedly destroyed humanity if not for the discovery of Dust.

It could be the Dark God feigned working with the Light God and slipped back to Remnant and changed him Grimm from "Slaughter all that lives" to "Slaughter the humans" as a final middle finger to his brother. As for the God of Light, he could have found out and created for humanity the thing that let them fight back: dust. Kinda like how Prometheus took fire from olympus and gave it to mankind, the God of Light took Dust, something only they were meant to have, and gave it to humans so they could fight back.

The events of the series would have then just been the two brothers back to trying to one up each other, whether through living amongst the humans in embodiments like Salem (Yes she is female but reincarnation doesn't care about Gender) and Ozpin's line, maybe even the old wizard, or through influencing event and using certain individuals like Salem and Ozpin as the ones to carry out their desires. Would paint the gods as kinda petty, but hey, the trope God and Satan are Both Jerks is a thing.
