Because none of those "hints" are obvious, or even subtle. They see it only because they have Gay Googles sticked to their face and refuse to take it off.

With Sun, it's perfectly obvious. And even with Ilia, even when I still feel every one of her interactions with Blake prior to the reveal comes off more as close friendship than actual romantic interest, said interactions show better hints than pretty much every interaction between Blake and Yang does, if they do at all.

In fact, even if I put on Gay Googles myself and said that Yang does have feelings for Blake, I'm 100% sure that their relationship took a dive after Blake ran away without telling her anything when Yang needed her the most, even though she knew about Yang's abandonment issues. In other words, pretty sure those feelings would be mostly if not entirely gone.

Unless Yang really did forgive Blake for all of that just because Weiss told her to, nevermind how it was part of what made Yang fall into a depression for months. That scene still irritates me for that....for someone like Yang, what Blake did was not and should not be something one can simply dismiss and forgive just like that. Finally .... someone with the exact same thoughts as me.
