Rinne was never meant to be the heroine, so you're judging her by the wrong standard. I recall Minato the producer was clear from the start that Rinne is the second protagonist and we can see in Episode 4 and 38 that she's the one receiving emotional support. Rinne is an alchemist and in this show, alchemists are sometimes Riders. She's the Dragon to Houtarou's Rabbit, hence why their names add up to 10.
