Agreed on all your points. Jaune desperately wants to live up to his ancestors' legacy and that makes him afraid of exposure as 'weak' and afraid of asking for help. Similarly, I refuse to believe that Beacon didn't verify his transcripts which means either Jaune is a lot smarter than we give him credit and had set up a faked verification (nearly impossible) or that Ozpin knows and is keeping it under his hat.

I think that Jaune, like Ruby, is one of Ozpin's pet 'special projects'. After all, he named Jaune team leader completely against the flow of the Initiaition Test. He knows alright and he has an agenda.
