Removing trope misuse; as per TRS, this is an IUEO motive trope where the work acknowledges in some fashion that the villain has a good point about his motive for being a villain without it ever being a justification for him becoming a villain because of it.


* VillainHasAPoint: Hazel accuses Ozpin of sending children to die in a war that he knows can't be won and has no end.

* CallBack: When fighting Cordovin in Volume 6, the heroes cannot penetrate the mecha's HardLight shield, so they decide to shut it down by [[Recap/RWBYV6E11TheLadyInTheShoe attacking its generator]]; in the [[Recap/RWBYV6E13OurWay finale]], the Leviathan does the same thing, blasting through the accessible generators after it fails to blast through the shields. In this volume's [[Recap/RWBYV8E1Divide first episode]], Ironwood is confident that the shields protecting Atlas can withstand attack for a while; Salem never bothers fighting the shields, instead skipping straight to destroying the generators by sending Centinels to burrow beneath and collapse them. The episode closes on Ironwood's stunned horror as he watches just how fast the shields collapse.
