Why would Atlas wipe her memories? Would because they viewed involvement as a thorn in their side, or would it be out of fear that she'd rebel What would they gain from it? Or would they see it as an act of mercy, to remove the memory of the trauma she went through at her apparent "death".

Something about the way you worded the sentence also got me thinking:  We've already been told that Ironwood has honest intentions, but we know nothing about his superiors. Remember how Cinder criticized Atlas for having one governing body involved in everything (bringing the Hunters into their military). Ironwood may be good... for now, but he's got a lot of shady grey areas that we haven't yet seen. I still want to see more of the conflict between Ironwood and Ozpin. Something seems to be going on that no one knows about yet
