RT putting effort into the rival teams makes them (hopefully) feel much more authentic. When we dealt with CRDL in the past, they all seemed to be the same person more or less, and it took a lot of the authenticity away from them. By having a rival team with their personal quirks, styles, etc. it will make the RWBY world feel more complete and real.
