1: They had their chance to make him a better character since the beginning, really. If you think sparing him during Volume 6 could work, then that would mean absolutely zero development for Blake and Yang.

2: Oh, no no no. I was saying that I agree with you on the fact that there was barely any Faunus discrimination in the story. No Bumblebee involved.

A: Hmmm, interesting idea.

As for my reasons for thinking BB was forced, I have one good reason:

There was barely anything in the beginning that would suggest a relationship.

People claim that the Dance Arc in Volume 2 were the first signs of Bumblebee having a chance of being canon. Some of their evidence can be easily refuted, some can’t. There is also the deleted Bumblebee material that was going to appear in Volume 2, not 1.

So, why would Yang suddenly fall in love with Blake when they barely interacted in the previous Volume? I’ll tell you why, because F is for Forced, and that’s what this ship always was.
