Also, Qrow knows how Ruby deals with things when given enough power. I mean, in that very scene, despite being shaken by Pyrrha's fate, Ruby wanted to help Qrow. She's a bit stubborn.

But at least Ruby's not going the path of HxH's Gon. We seriously don't want her to tread that same path. There is no point at all to lie there. He basically said to here "You have magical power because of legendary stuff" which would be exactly the same with the Maiden things. So, if he bothered to explain the "Silver-eyes legend" it's because it's the truth, not because he was trying to hide something (if that was the case, he failed miserably as explain above).

On another topic, I wonder if Cinder will be satisfied with "only" one Maiden power. She may try to take all of the 4 powers.
