Never said it was dumb. If the siblings will run a Syndicate, be it a front for the Brotherhood or not, it makes more sense than Unity. Where nobody united. Even though people were expecting the Parisian Templars and Assassins to unite and solve the revolution, or modern ones to unite against Juno.

You know, going with the whole thing they've started with AC3's "As long as you don't explicitly say these guys are Templars, you can't brand them as bad guys, because their goals are virtually the same as the Assassins', so they might unite towards them."
