People don't ignore it, they forget it exists. Keep in mind that it was a DVD/blu-ray exclusive; many people never knew about it to begin with.

That said; it doesn't ACTUALLY say a Semblance can be used defensively without Aura. In fact,

'''As they receive more and more damage, their Aura reserve will deplete. If this happens, all the fighter will be left with is his resolve.'''

It even says that once Aura is gone all they've got is their resolve.

It follows up by saying

Fortunately, when a fight turns gruesome, a warrior can also rely on their Aura in a different manner.

Note the specific wording; 'rely on their aura' and THEN describes Semblances;

"Semblance" is a term used to describe the projection of Aura into a more tangible form

A Semblance is directly described as a projection of aura. Never once does it say it can be used without.

The wording is a bit questionable, but when dissected the meaning is more like "IF you run out of Aura good luck, scrub. But while you've still got it, your Semblance might just save your ass"

This will be my final contribution to the thread.
