We still should remember that brand inheritation is not a good thing in the aspect of arcade expansion, since newer brands would more likely benefit the characters. We could easily imagine that it's rather perfect to let every main idol create a new brand that represent themsleves, but BANDAI is the one that prevent this from happening.

Especially given that Yuzu has done five premium coords by her own, very few fans would expect Shiny Smile to have more to do with the story. The spotligts should be shared by newer brands such as FuwaFuwaDream.

As for the story, we also should notice that, in a common sense, the senior idols (in this case, 25th S4) are supposed to be active idols that can just keep being brand muses in their young age. It's just that BANDAI change the brand muses for thier needs.
