Why did Orion push Luna Gray so aggressively in 1990 right after Nova disappeared?

The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit.
The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers.

Did anyone ever see Luna Gray perform live, or was she exclusively a satellite playback act?

If Luna Gray was the copy, who was the original? Read the Akasaka Voice Print GEN-3 memo.

Compare the chorus of 'Mirror Signal' to 'Memory Hatch'. It's the same chord progression played by a sequencer with no human feel.
