This is completely speculation on my part, but I think that the reason is to make the avatar just a side part of the game. I could be completely wrong, but it seems like a big complaint from a lot of older fans is that the avatars take up too much of the main story. So the training/teaching part is where you get to use your OC to actually change the stats and efficiency of your warriors, but on missions the lords themselves will be the main focus. I could be wrong though. I do think they have shown fights where the teacher was in them but I think they were all mock fights. 

You're probably right, but man the newer FEs are becoming less and less for me. I guess I'll just wait for the next Fire Emblem Echoes game. I mean like I said, I'll give it a fair shot but I'm not liking what I'm seeing thus far. Not a fan of avatars in FE unfortunately. 

Ironically I think that's the entire reason that they focused on the teaching section though - it's basically saying "Yeah, besides upgrading your guys in your hub, these guys aren't important to the story at all". 

But I get what you mean. Even as a newcomer, the advertising for this game is just awful.
