You both make fair arguments, at this point I think maybe we wait and see if Tari has any thoughts that could influence things but otherwise put Romio, Isuzu, Ayumu, Shizuru, Ren & Ran in minor characters for now considering their overall lack of influence on the plot as a whole and change them accordingly with their roles in the new movie/other future instalments?

I would be inclined to think that the new ISC members and Isuzu will be playing a more active role in the future given their presence on both the newest drama CD and character album, as well as Romio and Shizuru being on the new merch series for RtW, they just didn't get a lot of screen time in DttF since there was so many existing and new characters to deal with. My other main reason for bumping them up to supporting, in the case of the ISC members anyway, was because KyoAni listed them on the DttF website at the same importance level as Kisumi, Gou, Ryuji & Mikhail; but that wasn't really an official "ranking" of their importance as such it could just be because they were new and they wanted to introduce them to the audience before the show properly started while opting to keep Isuzu a surprise.

Sorry that was a little longer then I expected but TLDR, I support putting them in the Minor category at least for the time being.
