I don't think an army would be helpful, much less required.
You do not need overwhelming firepower to deal with Salem. Binah or any of her Anomalies would probably be quite capable of overcoming Salem in single combat.
The thing that makes Salem such a threat is her inability to die, but Binah's anomalies also have that, and... either Binah has a way to turn Salem into the Book of Salem, in which case she wins with or without an army, or she does not have a way to turn Salem into the Book of Salem, and an army is useless.

Ozma (RWBY) blasted her into a pile of dust before she ever started her campaign to destroy Remnant.
She got better.
None of the high-end RWBY characters are scared of Salem purely for her prowess, they fear her for her inevitability.

I don't expect her to get a buff myself, that's the funny part, she's not a problem because of her strength, we are monstrous too in this domain and have the magical girls with us, and the QM was fully ready to give us White Night, strength was never part of the equation, no, she's a problem because of the sheer number of grimms you'll probably have to get through to reach her, plus her humans servants and not knowing where she exactly is ( and our closest knowledge on this is *on one particular continent*, not easy to find her). It was never a question of who would win the fight, it was always about reaching said fight in the first place.

Also, Binah and the others don't know Salem's stats, so they might overestimate her prowess, or hold back in combat because they don't realize that they can go all out and still capture Salem alive
Lots of stuff folks don't know that can drive plot and drama.

We do know she's immortal (Cinder told us) and didn't need to capture her alive anyway, since we want her book, and you can get books by killing someone in the library, probably can here too.
That just means we wouldn't hold back to *not kill her* though, Binah can still be too wary of her, though we can probably help with that, via combat votes plans when the time come.
The main thing, I think, is that her immortality is literally god tier, that means that we'll probably have to find a way around it to get our book, White Night might have allowed to outright overpower it (Naron did say it was the *yeah, no, there are no such things as winning fights against us* choice), but the girls are far from it, so we'll have to turn to other things, one is convincing the Jester tostop sleeping on the job help, another is finding some interactions that fuck with her immortality, Ozpin would probably help on this one. There are probably more, but these are the first to come to mind for me.

People also seem to love to create conflict, so that might be a part of it.

Conflict means story arcs. If you don't have conflicts in your story, it will just fall flat. And if you don't have enough conflict in your story, the world will just feel like a piece of cardboard with toys on it moving.
The original show has no conflict aside from the main cast and some side characters. There's not even political things going on in the background. The council is just a bunch of cardboard cutouts.
So I do hope the council will send a representation to us because ozzy told them that the girls of our childrens, not their assets. Because well they will very very much wants us to let the girls join the military, it'll be a great bargaining chip.

I keep getting surprised at how RWBY's token minority character has somebody saying that they hate her guts every time she gets screen-time here.
Like I can understand wanting to go for the happy robot kid over poking the rebellious teenager, but like 'shitty kitty', really🤨

...wow, now that's a bad nick name if I ever seen one.
But really I was just tired of seeing her and WFs for now. And we really need to open up some new story lines, We have been dealing with white fangs for 10 or so chapters, I want a breath of fresh air.
But other than that, I don't really don't want to see her. I just feels like she can be left in the sideline for now to let her storyline/Hatred grow for a bit longer.

Oh yeah that too, binah is really just doesn't care about Normal people feeling, she wants to see people getting pushed to the very edge and see if they break or they push back.
I do hope we can get a Side Story with ash and others coming together to try to get blake to feel better.

Alas, someone else will have to write that. I stay away from doing sidestories like these; partly to not hand out extra information, partly because I try to keep the story concise. Branching out into other characters' PoVs may swiftly escalate, so I do not want to get into the habit.
But if there were a decently written Omake, I could canonise it
*Sigh* It has been some time since I said that but: This is false, you can very well do a story without conflict, in fact, trying to add conflict without reason will hurt more than anything, what a story needs is tension, conflict is just one form of it, there are way more means of creating it than simple conflict.
If you want some proof, just look at the entire slice of life genra: no conflict to be found here.

I mean. Technically speaking, this quest is a slice-of-life/mystery/Drama story.
We don't need conflict to work in the first place.
If we did, we would've taken the Wing Option.
That too, thank you for pointing it out.
The *stories need conflict!* argument tends to make me react because, a lot of the time, it also goes and conflate conflicts with fights, despite the fact that there is such a thing as social conflict, and begins asking constant fights until the story becomes a mess without any coherence due to it.

Personal conflict is still conflict.
I'm not only talking about global scale I'm talking about ideology conflicts, interest conflict, personality conflict, Verbal conflict. Any type.
But of course, I know sometimes forcefully adding conflicts into a story will hurt characters and story progression, but most stories needs conflict to proceed and to grow better, slice of life will sometimes ad an adversary character to the main protagonist, Make the main character rethink about their previous action and become better as a human being or just okay, ok this girl is hard to get. I need a better strategy.
Conflict, with yourself, with the world around you, with your friends or foes, with anything.

The thing is, even these forms of conflicts aren't necessary, you don't need them, they're just the easiest way to create the tension. These are not the same things, actually, go search for Kishôtenketsu, it's a Japanese method of storytelling that explicitly don't need any conflict.

hmm, Well, after a quick Google search, I didn't understand it. so, sorry, but anyway, here's some mutual ground that we can stand together with.
Although a story doesn't need conflict to be good or great. Some conflict is still good for storytelling reasons and tension building, and it is still just a way to tell a story, there's no one definitive way to tell a story.
Basically, let's agree to disagree and move on, I'm going to get dinner.
