I've posted this elsewhere but I think that the Signal academy kids don't build their weapons from scratch but are given disassembled production weapons for them to choose and trick out. The High-Calibre Sniper Scythe is rarely used but Ruby assembled Crescent Rose and even introducted some unique, personal modifications. This brought her to Uncle Crow's attention (he may not even have known she was kin as she might have originally been enrolled there as Ruby Xiao Long).
