Hmmm... What if Raven knows about this stuff, and that's why she left in the first place? She eventually had to tell Summer or Summer found out on her own.

Or, what if the whole team knows, and the reason Taiyang wouldn't tell Yang everything about her mother is because he felt it's not a good time for Yang to know yet... or ever? After Yang was born, Raven decided she didn't want her daughter growing up in a world where people keep needlessly dying, being thrown away like worthless pawns, while the government continues to lie to the people. Enough was enough. She wasn't just going to sit by and let that continue. She wanted a better future for her child. So, she left to find a way to change things.

Qrow is using his connection with Ozpin, though it's hard to tell if Ozpin knows about this stuff or not. He probably does and is playing the long game.

Taiyang had settled down for a teaching job and needed to stay home to take care of Yang, and Summer decided she should help him. She valued staying close with those she loved, so she tried to balance that with waiting to find someway that they could change things. In the meantime, she took missions to try to prevent needless deaths that their government caused or turned a blind eye to.

Man, it makes me kinda sad that there's a good chance this isn't canon. It'd be pretty awesome, though.
