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 vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.

It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved.

Pop producers reuse chord progressions and synth patches constantly. Ever heard of Stock Aitken Waterman?
