I don't think they really "listened" to Roxy's fans, so to speak. S7 felt more like them cementing the fact that Roxy would never become a Winx since she's written out of their mission completely by having Brafilius (arguably the worst villain in the series) steal her Stone of Memories and they completely ignore her as the Winx earn Butterflix, which I wouldn't be so ticked about had Rainbow not tried their darnedest to advertise Roxy as a Believix fairy during her debut. While the fanbase has more or less accepted that she's just a Winx/Charmix fairy with big wings similar to Mirta, it's confusing for new viewers because, again, she was advertised as being a Believix fairy.

Additionally, she's still treated as a novice who can't defend herself, despite her having gone to Alfea for up to 2 years by S7. Then there's her treatment in WOW, where she only ever helps when she's called upon by Bloom, but is still kept relatively out of the loop in regards to their overall mission to the point where she doesn't even show up at all in Season 2.
