And there are several episodes in season 2 in which the two combatants have no reason to fight, and they almost NEVER have a reason to kill. Pointless fight is kinda a staple of the show. Besides, the animation has no purpose other than entertainment. And they probably COULD come up with some legit reasons(Sparing match gone too far, petty disagreement, ect).

And as for the other reasons, only one of them seems legit, and that's the first one. The third one is you repeating the second one and the fourth one goes against alot of what RWBY does. It's been confirmed that the Grimm are a threat, V2C12 shows them being made out of tissue paper. It's been confirmed that there is racism towards Faunus, only the people who are jerks to everyone mistreat the Faunus, and even then it's of no different level towards the humans. It's been confirmed that Ruby is the main character, she does absolutely nothing to move the plot, gets the least amount of development, and could be removed entirelly, that is the definition of a MINOR character. And as one final nail in the coffin, Batman once said that Captain America could beat him in hand to hand combat, Death Battle came to the conclusion that that was not the case. What the people writing say does not always translate into what was written, ecpesially with RWBY.
