In the past, when forbidden love was well forbidden, Half-Clan kits were treated with suspicion and mistrust. Do you think with Cross-Clan relationships being allowed that Half-Clan cats will be treated like "pure" Clan cats or will they still be discriminated against?

Of course, there's always going to be someone who has qualms with the idea. Consider Berryheart, who can't seem to let go of the events of AVoS and distrusts anyone who isn't ShadowClan. Thus said, as long as nobody is willing to banish cats for it like Oakstar or weaponize it like Tigerstar I, I'm just grateful that the Clans are becoming more accepting of half-clan cats.

There will still be cats who discriminate against half-Clan cats (current proof of that, right after the cross-Clan relationship rule was changed, is Berryheart).
Even in the far future, I could see a villainous (xenophobic in particular) cat rise up to leadership or become a medicine cat (just gain power in general) and start blaming everything that might go wrong for the Clans (like a sickness) on cats whose heritage is from more than one Clan. To spread distrust and possible chaos among the Clans which they could then use to their advantage by claiming that the only way to for the Clans to prosper and heal again is to "embrace the old ways" and forbid cross-Clan relationships once more. This is just an idea for a possible future villain though.

I feel like Even if the Rules aren't Really discriminating them anymore, The cats will still Need time to Adjust and Realize that half-clan cats Aren't inherently bad, I don't think They'd suddenly Fully accept it Especially after so long

It might be an interesting storyline seeing the Clans getting use to more Half-Clan cats.

I mean, technically, if both parents are in the same Clan does it really make them half-Clan? Even if one of the parents was born in another Clan?

Tooooo be more upfront on Oakstar's part, that felt more like "abusing the code to banish the kits of my son's killer" rather than genuine bigotry. Not necessarily better, but the hate comes from something that is personal rather than stupidity.

I wouldn’t be surprised if very few cats think twice about half-Clan heritage within just a few generations. Having mixed-Clan heritage might become pretty overtly ubiquitous before long. Still, there will always be prejudiced cats. And it doesn’t seem like inter-Clan conflict is going away anytime soon, so grudges may always be a factor.
