I'm still not 100% convinced that Weiss vs. Ruby is over yet. I get the feeling it's going to flare up later. But she seems to realize now that being the leader doesn't mean being the best huntress, it just means being the best leader. Agreed; fundamentally, Weiss doesn't like Ruby. Their personalities are too different and almost everything about Ruby on a personal level grates upon Weiss's nerves. I've said it before but it will take a fairly traumatic incident to make her want to be Ruby's best bosom pal.

That said, I do think she took in Port's point that, right now, her spoilt attitude actually makes her seem younger and less able to lead than Ruby.

What I think made it worse in this case is that Ruby was right about the Boarbatusk's vulnerability. I don't know if Weiss had realised that before (her attacks before Ruby's advice suggest not) and that literally enraged her. She might have lost if not for Ruby's advice! Pride and arrogance are Weiss's achilles heels and Port was right to call her out on it.
