Warrant, maybe, but that still would face several problems. First of, the reclassification itself. I don't buy that everyone in the bureau except for the main cast is an asshole, so the decision itself would yield a lot of question marks from a lot of officials.
This would mean that the classification would need to be proven. Not an easy task considering the girls aren't homocidal maniacs who kill, pillage and burn everything in their immediate surroundings. Even Diana is more talk than substance in that department.
So let's assume the investigation proceeds, this would then have to face the counter-investigation intend on proving that the girls
aren't threats. This investigation would be a lot more successful, and would debunk the majority of the points the former investigation would raise.
And then, assuming they manage to overcome all these difficulties, they have to face the girls themselves. As you pointed out, they really don't have much of a problem continuously blasting everyone that comes for them, and since their big sisters are on their side, the bureau can't count on the magical wonderteam to help them out here.
Of course, if the TSAB is planning this they better hurry up and do it now. Given enough time to understand the political climate, Athena is practically praying for the TSAB to try and pull this. It's a wonky political road they're taking, balancing on the edges of their morals and standards. Even the slightest kick would spark voices of malcontent from the masses, and Athena tends to use sledgehammers instead of kicks.
