Ozpin had no reason to tell about the Branwens, but we the audience knew. Seriously, why would Ozpin tell about the bird form? How does it affect anyone besides the people involved themselves? But someone else actually having magic powers, now, that's something worth knowing.

I don't want to be the one who always find something wrong with someone else's theories (although to be fair to me, I wasn't the only to point out the flaws in your theory), it's just: I'm tired of McGuffins. Stories and characters don't become interesting because magic is involved and because characters have special powers. Ruby is a SEW and she is one of the worst characters. Maiden powers are supposed to be tied to soul, from what I understood the souls before affect the one that has it now, yet did it affect Cinder in any way? So, no, I don't want more McGuffins, I want them to explore what they already have. There's no reason to associate red eyes with anything special and if that's your wish, well I don't get the appeal, but fine. Personally, I wish they stop adding pointless magic and special powers, and just explore what they've already made.
