Nope, Aura was invented so the characters could pull off over the top fight scenes without dying when the writers don't want them to die. ...................Wait. Then why the entire lack of blood in almost the entirety of Vol.1-5? Not saying they should've added a whole river of blood or anything but, still.

1) Okay that's more understandable. Then again, we don't really know the terrain of the tundra and how often land grimm attack, so its harder to make a guess. The Grimm on Anima seem to be based on territories, the Lancers in the sky above the water, that Sea Dragon in the Ocean, Beowolves in the Woods near Shion and Higanbana, Nucks near Kuroyuri and Shion, and now Manticores and Sphinx in the mountains. The opening implies some sort of hydra or cephalapod grimm, so may it isn't that filled with Land Grimm, and more often has Aerial Grimm.

2) To be fair to Oscar, its not like he can do anything. Ozpin can take control of his body whenever he wants, and only asks as a formality, as the fight against Hazel showed. He had to visibly fight back just to wrestle control away for a good thirty seconds. Even if he mentally asked Ozpin, Ozpin might not just close himself off like he did after the Battle of Haven ended. And we aren't certain how much of Ozpin's memories Oscar has access too, as he required some prodding from Ozpin to remember Leo's office, and had to ask Ozpin just who Gretchen Reinhart was. If anything, maybe Oscar could only figure out Ozpin's intentions cause he was in the back seat rather than the drivers seat.

3) I know what you're talking about, but the anger part I'm seeing is how he charged at Ruby. Plus his outburst at Jinn before she could tell about the Wishes.

4) While I'll concede it makes sense, it doesn't paint him in a good light when his entire schtick the series has been about the power of mankind, working together and fighting off the darkness. The Leo part I honestly felt was a good move for the public, but the fact he's defending Leo now personally paints it more negatively. To quote the Fridge Horror Section on Tv Tropes: 5 & 6) Alright, I'll concede on that and just chalk up Yang turning her weapons on Qrow to Paranoia. She still isn't exactly stable after what happened at Beacon afterall. Just look at her outburst about Blake directed at Ruby and Weiss.
 * In addition his rant about how Leo shouldn't be demonized for one mistake after a lifetime of good, while somewhat noble, also carries the tone that he doesn't want to hold people to the standard of one mistake or betrayal marking someone as scum forever because if he did he'd either have be an admitted hypocrite, or hold himself to such standards which would mean Ozpin himself is a fiend because he's admits he's made countless mistakes and judgement lapses over the years. Basically hating on Leo invites people to hate on himself.

7) Weiss may seem Ice Cold, but she does still have some warmth in her heart. Problem is, she's so desperate to not be hurt she hardens the cold exterior in the process.

8) We may get one thanks to Jinn. Ruby did ask to tell them what Ozpin was hiding, she wasn't specific, so Leo may come up in one of the flashbacks.
