Ako and Koharu are treated much better than Kaede and Sakura, As I said above, Kaede and Sakura had technically obtained premium dress and became designer's fav idols, just as idols they're treated better than Koharu and Ako at this point.

As for story portraying, Koharu and Ako are both treated fine in the series, but as long as they're not able to actually shine as idols, it just ends looking like plot writers trying to make up for the loss BANDAI did.
