2-As for how she could know who her descendants are, being as ancient and powerful as she is, I believe she could sense who carries her essence within them

3-Not to mention if it was true, she'd have brought Qrow up short when he infiltrated her domain on that reconnaissance mission.

4-He definitely knows who she is, which would've made the mission even riskier, especially with what happened to Raven.

5-As for Salem not doing anything to stop Ruby, that's because she clearly doesn't see her as a threat, even after she unleashed her SEW power.

6-Overall, that's why I don't believe the theory, it simply doesn't make sense to me. 1-She's obviously ancient, wise not so much. But, about all she has said in the WoR, she was telling what in-universe is common knowledge for the greater-most part. Did she say how Grimm are born, why they want to kill mankind so relentlessly, or even what they are? No, she just said what most people in Remnant would know.

So yes, she's clearly reading from cue cards for the most part in the WoR, more than stating the actual facts.

2-That is an assumption, and you know it. And depending on where exactly she is, the distance could be absurdly high for her to sense them.

3-When was it stated Qrow infiltrated her domain? It never was.

4-And what happened to Raven? Come on, explain.

5-Oh, sure, the one known person alive with a power so great she could freeze the ancient, nigh-unstoppable Dragon in one shot. Obviously not a threat, especially not after she spends some time training and mastering those powers.

Dude, do you treat Wise and Manipulative as synonimous with Foolish and Blind?

6-And yet most of your reasons for not believing the theory, are assumptions of questionable degrees of acceptability.
