To be fair, Weiss comes from a family where "thank you" is almost never spoken. Until mid season 2 to 3, she acted similarly as the rest of the Schnees. As a person with only slightly different social issues myself, it's quite hard to break old habits that you've had for years, especially with people who you don't view as a friend.

Considering how she viewed Jaune as possibly just another guy who liked her for "the perks of [her] family name" or for her looks, and with how Henry Marigold acted (apparently similarly to many others), she hasn't been around Jaune enough to see how much he's grown since then. I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt; her kinda recent shift (in the grand scheme of her life) from selfish to selfless is still normalizing. She just isn't used to saying "thank you" to a person she previously viewed as an idiot, especially during a stressful combat situation.

But meh, this conversation isn't really about spoilers at the moment...
