Maybe because it's a historical setting they want to make implications about relationships. Lucius may be an ancestor for Tommy Walsh. Lucanus Flavius may be related to Professor Englund (if he is, I want to see some evidence of magick from this guy or a reference back to Englund's slave master ancestor in The Elementalists). If these are relatives it's better done than Zenobia Nevrakis and Olivia Nevrakis where the only thing changed was their clothes. They could have at least given Olivia a different hairstyle or changed her eye color.

Of course asking them will likely do no good, since they will probably say "wait and see" or "we can't comment on that" or simply ignore the question all together. On the other hand asking will let them know we are aware of what they did, especially if it does turn out to be that there is no connection between these characters.
