That is not being passive aggressive.
... where is this coming from?
At least make sure to quote the right person next time, will ya?
We know what Quinn meant because we're privy to that information, but Maya doesn't. There is no way anybody could reasonably be expected to interpret that as, "I guess that means I have to whore myself out for money". For someone who doesn't know what Quinn is really up to, that would just seem like a playful, provocative comment that doesn't mean anything more. And Maya's question is simply asking what's required to get the free tuition and that could easily be something like "get a job and pay rent to the HOTs", or "do charity work", or literally anything except "whore yourself out for money" because there's now way she or anybody else would expect that to be what's required.
As someone who was never into Maya nor hating of her, so have little skin in the game. i really cannot see how her behaviour could ever be described as a hissy fit or passive aggressive.
Even if she took it as more than a throway comment she'd probably assume it as promoting promiscuity of the hots party sorority not making a bizarre leap to prostitution.We know what Quinn meant because we're privy to that information, but Maya doesn't.

How exactly can someone who claims to be an investigator be this bad at understanding simple things?
I think if this game was ultimately as good as Acting Lessons (which has its flaws anyway) we could all be satisfied
Because nobody would. Who in their right mind would ever expect sorority girls to have to whore themselves out in order to get a free ride with their tuition? It's a completely unreasonable expectation, and knowing that Quinn likes to be edgy and provocative, the only way anybody in that situation could possibly interpret her words are that Quinn is simply being Quinn and nothing more than that.
Exactly. It's an incredibly wild and unbelievable leap to expect Maya to interpret that line as meaning that she understands she has to whore herself out for the tuition. It's deliberately ambiguous as well as being in-line with Quinn's provocative nature that she could easily dismiss it as nothing more than a colourful turn of phrase.
This game also lacks a "corruption" tag, so that's a pretty big giveway that we won't see it happen.
I thought Acting Lessons was very promising. Despite the furore about the big choice my main issues were with how on the rails it was after that. So i'm keeping my fingers crossed that the final mile of DIK is not of the same pattern
Being "on rails" isn't something these games and VNs can really avoid because there generally has to be some level of a connective throughline. So while there may be options in what relationship(s) you can get involved in that determines who you end up with, these will just provide variety in an otherwise linear story.
Brilliant.
am I the only one who kinda wants a bad ending where MC takes over Quinn's business?
Take over? No.
