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

The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.
I ran both through an FFT analyzer: Luna Gray has absolutely NO 14.2 Hz subcarrier anywhere on the record.

Line 05 in the decoded matrix said it plainly: 'THEY WILL SEND A COPY IN MY PLACE.'

The album vanished from record stores within 6 months. Orion deleted the entire catalogue in late 1990.

Line 06: 'DO NOT WORSHIP THE COPY.' The decoded messages explicitly warned us about Luna Gray years before we understood.

Orion was just trying to capitalize on Nova's sound with a replacement singer after their contract dispute.
