Every time someone asks about something that would be a spoilers, they either state outright "don't ask spoiler questions" or hedge around the subject, such as when they hedged around Ozpin's deal with time in the Cast Commentary of V3. We know time is a thing, but we don't know how or what he does with it.

They don't lie. The only times that something can be construed as a 'lie' has come about was the result of things being changed after they made the statement; the statement was entirely true at the time it was made, but changes made to the show in some capacity has made that statement incorrect. It's not a lie, it's things changing.

They're not gonna change Ruby's father for the fun of it, or for 'shock' effects. Her father is Taiyang, and will most likely remain that way for the rest of the show. To chamge it arbitrarily would be stupid of them.
