FWIW, I think that Summer and maybe Yang's mother went on that mission knowing it was difficult. However, I doubt they would have taken on an 'impossible' or 'suicide' mission unless there were lots of innocent lives at stake and there was a damn good reason why they weren't getting lots of backup.

My call is that Ozpin asked them to do a mission as a favour to him. However, he fatally misread the likely risks and it got the women killed (One mistake of so many... so many others...). He's never forgiven himself. Neither has Cinder.
