Those people that seem to never be affected by the loss of friends and family as their world is crumbaling around them. Those people feel like they need to be that island of normalcy that lets others have an beacon of normal so that they can procces their grief and loss. Ruby's devlopment is very sutle and under the surface. you see peeks of her grief and pain in Volumes 4 and 5 but you don't get any sense of how she is affected until she and Oscar have their chat in the dojo. In Oscar she had the only oppertunity to express her grief and sorrow as she couldn't talk to the others as they needed her to be well, normal Ruby, so they could procces their sorrow and grief over Pyrra's and Penny's Deaths. And if you are going to say Ruby hasn't developed then you have to say the same about Nora. and in the fight aginst the Nuckelavee we saw that there was a side we have never seen from Nora when she stoped Lie Ren from getting himself kill tring to stop the Nuckelavee from hurting or killing Ruby, Jaune, and Qrow. and both Ruby and Nora are the same personality wise. I agree, Ruby has had some subtle but real development since Beacon's fall. Her discussions with Jaune in Volume 4 and with Oscar in Volume 5 and her letter to Yang in Volume 4 finale show it.
