Exactly!

I think the best argument is if Ozpin was the old man, why wouldn't he just make Pyrrha the new Fall Maiden immediately? The old man had that power in the story. Why would he then have to use Ironwood's (experimental and completely untested) technology to try make her the new Maiden with no guarantee of success?

Basically, it just doesn't make sense for the old man and Ozpin to be the same person.
