You know what's great? The Grimm still aren't threatening. Even after having the odds heavily stacked in their favor at the end of Volume 3, the Hunters managed to reclaim everything except Beacon. The only threatening Grimm so far is the wyvern.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!Non-threatening?
If they were, it'd take away from the actually villains of this series.
They're not weapons, they're just an annoyance.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.They only seem to be a real threat when there is an endless horde and the are not attacking a heavily defended location.
They are still a threat to the average person with no huntsman training and Atlas grunt robots seem to have trouble also.

I also suspect it's running out.

If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.That's what Em thinking.
Hopefully it's not much more significantly used than other resources...that's gonna be rough yet temporary time if they ever run out of Duss.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.They said that humanity was just about finished off until they discovered how to harness Dust so that's presumably the only power source capable of creating and fueling things to kill Grimm. Whatever they used before it didn't cut it.
And it's not like they have the ability to experiment and look for other sources of energy. They can't even expand their cities without disaster.
They're kind of stuck at the status quo of using Dust.
That rather depends on whether or not Salem is going to be an Orcus on His Throne type of villain.
Regarding dust, Dust is, in fact, the residue left over when one of Salems' people dies. Long ago, Ozpin lead humanity in a war of extermination against Salem's kind, succeeding in killing all but one of them, hence why she despises Ozpin and humans so much.

her tone of voice dosen indicate hate against human, just minor annoying, she is piss at him for SOMETHING and aparenly for lying with the idea they can win
also I dont see Salem as the type who fight
so if Ozpin is Oz, Salem is the wicked witch of the east(and cinder the one of west)....who is dorothy?

Salem is secretly summer after snorting a extremely large amount of dust. Her current appearance is a result of that dust she snorted.
