The girl says that she doesn't like Jaune because he is just after her last name even though she herself knows that Jaune had no idea who Pyrrha was so that should be enough for her to realize that Jaune also doesn't know who she is. The only answer to that is that Weiss thinks Pyrrha can't compare to someone like her so it's obvious that Jaune doesn't know who Pyrrha is but knows who Weiss is. But I don't like to think Weiss is that much of a cruel person to think like that. Thanks for putting what I was thinking about the whole Weiss-rejecting-Jaune ordeal.

Alternatively, Weiss was just making an excuse on the fly to antepone to that she truly was rejecting Jaune because she had already chosen Neptune (whom she judged superior), so it didn't look like she was picking a dance couple like you shop for groceries. If that's the case, then I'm actually glad she had to deal with being rejected and didn't get away with inviting him right away (even if the reason Neptune rejected her was frivolous and stupid itself) because it taught her a necessary lesson. I had a hard time myself trying to figure Weiss out and the only logical conclusion I got was the same you wrote. Weiss most likely said that to justify her passionate hate for Jaune. After all, Neptune and Jaune are similar with the only difference being that Weiss thinks Neptune is more handsome and cooler but they basically use the same pick up lines and try to act cool. Difference is in how Jaune fails at being cool while Neptune succeed and how Neptune actually lacks a lot of true confidence while Jaune has tons of it. It doesn't make sense that Weiss likes Neptune but hates Jaune. That's why I can't see that ship as something else than Weiss having a crush on Neptune. It can also be seen in how Weiss changes abruptly whenever Neptune appears but when she's not talking to him, she goes back to her cold demeanor. One just needs to see her face when she talks to Neptune and when she talks to Sun right after in Burning The Candle.
