Considering their Life Ideals, Why is Camille and Jinx's connection so minimal?

This has really gotten on my nerves.. They are literally the incarnation of opposite philosophies of how the region of Piltover and Zaun should exist.One DESPISES rules and will go through any psychopathic lengths to ensure chaos and anarchy rules so she, and anyone else can do whatever the hell they want.Meanwhile the other will assassinate anyone in cold blood who does not have a place within the progressive nature of the industrial nations.

Jinx's lore literally states : > Piltover had long been known as the City of Progress, a place where peace and order reigned. That serenity was challenged when a new kind of criminal arrived, the likes of whom had never been seen. This mysterious outlaw unleashed a series of warped and destructive capers that endangered the entire city, and left its people reeling from the worst crime spree in Piltover's history and the city plunged into utter darkness for the very first time.

Surely this warrants more lore connection than a simple in-game taunt saying "Your antics have become a liability." No shit. The Piltover/Zaun story arc for the most part is the only lore I really care about because it's based on the industrial revolution and possibly the most Fundamental question that has come along with it. How much value should we place on the individual, and the "Machine" known as humanity? This question is still being asked, changed and re-implemented today in politics everywhere in the world. So this creates another question.

Why the hell isn't there more connection between the two extremists?

Because in the end their way of doing things are completely disconnected.

Jinx is a terrorist and a criminal,so it is Caitlyns&Vis job to catch her.

Camille however is an assassin,she kills those who could grow too much in power even if they didn't do anything evil.She would likely kill Jinx if she had the chance to,but there is no reason for her to actively pursue Jinx.

Also Camille does seem to have a connection to Vi(with one of Camilles quotes implying that she killed Vis parents),which actually makes sense cause Camille and Vi can just as easily be seen as opposites. I mean both are protectors of Piltover,one is young,follows her emotions and uses her fists,the other is old,strictly follows her orders and uses her legs.

I feel like Jinx and Camille are related very deeply, and it would probably destroy the theory that Jinx and Vi are sisters.

Jinx is still not given a definitive last name. Think on that.
