I think you missed a small fact: Roman caused the Breach far sooner than they planned to. The actual plan was most likely something on the lines of what happened in Vol.3, but Roman caused it too soon and the damage was far smaller than it could've been.

Of course, he fired it off because RWBY+O was already there, so if he didn't start it now, it would've been truly stopped. Cinder and co. then were forced to make a change of plans, trying again to get Grimm to invade Vale while using the Breach as a build-up for it.
