I do concede that it's not literally nothing.
There's also a bit in the lorebook page on Keepers (p.87):

In contrast to the Seekers of the Sun, with their male-dominated tribes and harems, the fundamental unit of Keeper of the Moon society is the family, centered around a strong mother figure and her children. Keepers are known to form small communities composed of two or three families who hunt together.
No mention of what the men are up to at all, so we have the quest script you quoted to infer the rest.

There's also the fact that female names are individual but male names are literally "Xth son of [mother's name]".

I just find it interesting to see different societies with different takes on fundamental concepts, and how they'd think about ours in return.

Preferably in ways that are curious rather than grim.
