1. Cinder's signature is not "glass magic." Her signature is her use of orange Dust weaved into her clothing, which I believe is lava Dust. Lava Dust would explain her ability to make black glass (like her swords), considering that obsidian is black glass that forms after volcanic eruptions. We have absolutely zero evidence that Cinder was even there. As far as we're concerned, she wasn't. Neo might have some kind of illusion Semblance or something.

2. Blake never actually outright made any attempt to finish Roman off. All she did was hold him hostage. That was all we clearly saw her do. Neo, meanwhile, clearly raised her sword up ready to stab Yang, who was unconscious.

Also, Monty stated that there is no "magic" exactly in RWBY. He considered magic to be something that has no limits. Dust is pretty much like science to them, and Aura is energy that can only do limited things.
