1-The WF are not fallen heroes, we have never been told they are like that. We've been told that they are nothing but misguided freedom fighters understandably considered terrorist-wannabes by the general population, especially the human population.

2-What a weird way to interpretate those lyrics. Hell, I'm not even sure how "We are lightning/Straying from the thunder/Miracles of ancient wonder" led you to believe/theorize that RWBY are representatives of "legends of old". In-Universe anyway.

3-They are not refusing the fact that there's a problem, they are not even aware that there's a problem. There's a difference.

4-We actually have not heard anyone ever say anything about Jaune's grandfather, neither In-Universe or Out-of-Universe. Hell, the only, ONLY thing anyone has ever said about Jaune's grandpa is that he "fought in the war" (not specified which), and the only one who said that was Jaune.

There's nothing about him being "widely revered", unless you count a single statue which may or may not be of Jaune's grandpa. And even then, that's too small to consider him being revered that much, especially since no one even mentions him.

5-RWBY at the moment thinks they are heroines. Whether they truly are or not depends on Cinder's motive for her plan, and even then it's up to interpretation. You know what they say, "Your terrorists are our freedom fighters".
