Going back to where this argument, I believe, began:

"Coco tore through Giant Nevermores and Deathstalkers with ridiculous ease, but consider that RWBY and JNPR easily outsmarted both of these creatures early on."

Clearly, the Giant Nevermore and the Deathstalker are not at their maximum potential as they are certainly not smart enough to forfeit a losing battle. Given this, they can clearly get smarter which likely requires they get older which then it would be reasonable to assume they can get even bigger. And what makes you think they weren't? Look at the Deathstalker's armor, and I mean really look at it. It's covered in cracks and fungus, clearly it's been in that cave for sometime after some great battle, evidenced by the cave markings. And Crescent Rose, 'The most lethel weapon ever constructed,' couldn't put a scratch in it. And if the average size of a Nevermore is no begger than a raven, than why was the one they faced the size of a cliff? The writers even went on record to say it was larger than normal, meaning it's one of the bigger ones, and you can't denie that a Grimm's size is most devinitly linked to it's age. Bigger Nevermore = Older Nevermore.
