@Ravkhin,

Meh, that's a red herring. Ladybug could be targetted at any point during any akuma attack. All it would take is to deploy Mayura off to one side to pursue her from hiding after the fight and then Hawkmoth could strike almost with impunity.

No, the only way to keep the new Guardian safe is to make sure she has defenders all around her all the time. Yes, there are risks involved but the stakes are now so much higher that I'd argue that one of the team being directly targetted is far less a potential catastrophe than Ladybug being blown or even captured because of lack of opsec. At least one person to keep Ladybug's tail 'clean' at the end of a battle (which means they are not used in the battle at all) and the Turtle or Fox Miraculous being on Marinette at all times to make it far harder for the villains to find her location by indirect means.
