I get what you are saying, but Bumbleby was planned from the beginning. You can say the early seasons were meh (which in some ways they were, in terms of the animation not being great) but it DOES get better as it goes along.
Big claims require proof.
I remember the CRWBY talking about it when Bumbleby was confirmed in Volume 9, along with the voice actors themselves, in interviews like this. I admit it could have been better done, but the fact is that it was done.
The voice actors aren't the writers, and the original writer, Monty Oum, died between Vol 2 and 3. If anyone is the authority of whether Yang and Blake were supposed to end up together, it's him. All you've linked to is testimony from years after Monty's death. That's not trustworthy evidence. The voice actors could have easily been lying.
Meanwhile, there's plenty of evidence of the fanbase pressuring Rooster Teeth over this since season 1, just go sift through r/RWBY. Occam's Razor says that the replacement heads of the project caved to the fans and lied about his plans. It's not lile there isn't plenty of evidence of RT employees being untrustworthy people
That's a big leap to think that the voice actors are lying. I wouldn't buy that. If the fanbase pressured Rooster Teeth, that is a good thing. I can't really sift through /r/RWBY as I have no account on Reddit anymore. As I said in another comment, I do still like seasons 1-3, but I do still believe the show got better as it went along.
