When it comes to Ari Family, we at least know that one of the Three Lords--Joochun--comes from this Family, so their political influence should be considerable. In contrast, there are Great Families where the one and only (known) "big shot" is the Family Head itself. Not only that, but Joochun apparently goes by his nickname instead of his real name, which could mean that he either isn't desperately trying to raise his Family's political status and / or the Ari Family de facto prefers to be left out of the spotlight.

This is quite different to the Lo Po Bia Family that is--according to Ren--trying to improve their political standing; though he could be referring to his particular branch of the Lo Po Bia Family. If this remark encompassed the entire Lo Po Bia Family, however, then it--at the very least--means that they currently have lesser political status / influence than they desire, and that they cannot change this without relying on their Princesses.
