Well, they shouldn't avoid LGBT characters out of concern it will arouse ire or out of some concern people won't care enough about the character otherwise. Really, they shouldn't worry about that with any of the main cast. Enough is known about the four of them that any LGBT revelation would be more of an addition to the character rather than a defining trait. I think the main thing is they would have a harder time arguing one of the main characters was gay as opposed to bi since basically all of them have expressed some interest in the opposite sex.

Ruby hasn't really been given any kind of real love interest or been shown to have any interest in romance, though she has had glimmers of interest. The others have all had genuine love interests, but in varying degrees. Blake is clearly interested in men as is Weiss, but Yang has less of that. She never really had a specific love interest in the story of any sex, but just express a general interest in boys. Hence, it would be easier to get people on board with her being gay or, at least, bi. With Blake you would pretty much have to make her bisexual in order to have her be an LGBT character, without it being ridiculous. Weiss you could maybe argue she never really had the opportunity to explore if she had any interest in the same sex.
