Going by recent trends, it's probably in that ballpark.

More specifically, it's so a few of them can be gay and they can deflect by saying "Well it's not the original characters so who cares?"

I mean not for nothing but that's the Swishiest Usagi Yojimbo I've ever seen.

I mean we know that "Your show needs to have LGBTQ+ content or your show doesn't get made" is a Hard Rule in 2022. So that's probably the What and the Why, right there.
