Alright then, either way, the thing is that we agree that the current phrasing is misleading. I will look into it if I find the motivation, otherwise someone will get to it sooner or later.

For the following, that is merely a speculation at this point; there are many ways they could have handled the situation; especially if they knew AA’s role in the matter. For instance, they could have adopted AA for his “accomplishment”, while getting rid of the Agnis branch family. As I said earlier, AA clearly didn’t care for his branch family all that much considering he helped their competition prevail despite--most likely--knowing or anticipating the consequences for the loser (not an unreasonable assumption). If they knew that a child could manipulate their selection process, I doubt they wouldn’t even consider the idea that he could be an asset to the family in the future.

If it's simply about them sharing a common goal (or some sub-goals), then it doesn't really matter (i.e., that's not manipulation or control, that's just benefiting from another's actions / goals). But if there is any actual control or manipulation, then there is no reason why the main branch couldn't do it also or even much better by simply inspiring AA to aim for a goal that benefits them. We have no reason to assume that the entirety of the main branch has weaker persuasive / controlling options than AA's mother whom he "abandoned" for Maria.

As for this plan to become the Family Head, we know that every Koon is eligible to challenge Eduan for the position so it shouldn’t bother anyone. However, we can probably agree that if they had adopted AA into the main branch, treated him well, and in fact groomed him for a position befitting his talents, they would most likely raise an individual who is grateful to the family instead an individual who is dead set on changing it.
