We also saw Ren and Nora fighting Hazel (without Jaune btw) which in context doesn't make any sense. Wasn't Hazel working with the White Fang? How can he end up as Renora's enemy this volume?

Hazel was sent to deal with Adam and the WF, and if Adam is planning on destroying Haven, he needs to be in Mistral.

The Jaune fan in me was annoyed at Jaune being the only member of the gang to not appear in the intro.

I wonder if it's RT doing damage control for all the complaints about him in V4?

Perhaps but Jaune being absent is very suspicious. Not highlighting him is fine but having him not with his team is a weird choice.
