This counts only for non-vanilla factions like SCRA and CR, the most vanilla factions get their reps from the vanilla lore with small adjustments during the mod versions because the vanilla lore was not completed and some huge loopholes were filled- especially smaller factions have little to no vanilla lore, not to mention reasons behind diplomacy.
For example the reason why Mollys and Rogues use the same line is because vanilla devs haven't bothered to model separate lines for the small factions, same story with bw line and all other small factions that use generic CTE stuff.
After Chris Roberts failure to complete the game in the promised development time-line he left FL selling it to M$.
Then the vision and the scope changed- M$ wanted some ROI and paid some german dudes to patch and fix and realise what was left from the unfinished Digital Anvil work, they cut huge parts of the Roberts vision in order to deliver the game faster and cheaper.. Germans did great job on stablity/lack of bugs and other typical german stuff but ignored the lore in typical german way.
