Unless he just wasn't acting, and he was driven by emotion. Cutting off their name in my opinion is more about cutting them off from the family fortune and the network that it employs. Mainly so the writers don't have to have it be a plot concern as to why the Twins don't flex on some connections. Now they can't. Back in Coil Alisaie pulled her strings. Enlisted Maelstrom. Twin Adders Officer. Immortal Flames guy. Not too mention her butler guys that help you go around looking for the final coil entrance.

I suppose it also kind of opens up the arena to show a divided estate. People loyal only to the money and name, but also those loyal to the Twins as people. Perhaps their mother as well, if she really is the picture of health as described by that callous scuzz bag.

I'm supposing that they say Alisaie is more like her father, because she kept her mouth shut vs. Alphinaud who was vocal and antithetical to Sharlayan's tradition of non-intervention in their Studium days. Beyond that, maybe he was a firebrand for traditionalism, hot blooded at one time. That doesn't seem to be the case now, as all he seems to be capable of is a snide glare.

Though it was chosen for its colors/look, I still find it interesting that he wears the Sharlayan Striking coat from Great Gubal HM, as well as the Shire Pankratist pants.
