Those are clearly for getting around the whole incest restrictions on Patreon. DS doesn't want people naming the characters anything else but what names he gives them.While that is totally true, I don't think the number of references to that name should count as an argument. He's already using placeholders a lot of times in dialogs, ie:
"Julia looks happy. What's the harm in making my {julia_kate_soft} happy?"
"Julia is my {julia_kate} and my roommate."
"Yes, I go here when I get bored sitting home. The coffee here is amazing. And sometimes I make sure my {alice_lisa} Lisa gets home safely, she's working as a waitress here."
"My {max_to_sisters} Max. You'll meet him if you visit my place."
"No. These aren't mine. Originally they belonged to Ann, my {ann_to_family}."
Introducing new ones could be done with a simple search and replace. But I suppose he has his reasons to not make them variable in the first place.
If he didn't have to worry about the incest aspect as far as Patreon goes, there'd be no "NPC Mapping", which is ironic because he previously stated during BB development that he doesn't like incest... Yet went straight into the Glamour remake with having Kate & Julia as sisters
