The word 'tsundere' doesn't just refer to love interest anymore. Nowadays the most common definition of a 'tsundere' is a character that shows hostility to another, before warming up to them over time and showing a softer side. This pretty much defines the relationship between Ruby a Weiss, but that doesn't mean it has to be romantic. Yes it may be cliche, but almost all the characters fit into some form of cliche.
