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

I ran both through an FFT analyzer: Luna Gray has absolutely NO 14.2 Hz subcarrier anywhere on the record.
The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit.

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?

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