Well, we could have gotten a young PT9 and Jenny with a child or toddler Johnny, in a 'eternal holiday' situation like with the Capps, Burbs and Pleasants, as part of a theoretical world designed to really go nuts with the seasonal lot markers. This world could also have had Glabe Curious and the Curious-Smith twins, for a good mix of full aliens and partial aliens.
The Loste and Loner families are blank slates, yes, but not every family in Sims 3 worlds are interesting. Wouldn't have been opposed to a child/toddler Kristen and Ajay with their parents somewhere, as there's no real information on their families. Afterall, Loki Beaker in Aurora Skies is just 'there', the focus was on his parents. Ideally Aurora skies would have had the Beaker, Salamis, Grunt and Curious families, as they all existed in one grassy non-desert town at one point. Weird that they all moved out to somewhere so remote, and found each other again, kicking up old rivalries. The Curious family in Twinbrook is just TOO far back to be the only Curious family rep in 3, would have liked to have seen Glarn alive and well, as hes quite a remarkable ancestor, with the highest child count in the series and a life full of drama, with his impregnation and divorce of Glabe. He also had the potential to introduce a brother or sister that explains where Sinjin Balani fits into the family tree; hes stated to directly be a cousin of Lazlo's, and this requires Glarn to have a sibling that we'd never heard about prior. I made an 'Eva Curious' (Pun!) to link Sinjin to the Curious siblings in my Sims 2 remakes recently, but it just doesnt feel right being 'fanon', I prefer official stuff only.
Generally I think we can agree though that the Oldies, Singles and Loner families were forgotten about due to being Family Bin content; EA remade all the Strangetown premades EXCEPT for the Singles and Loner family for Sims 4. Burbs got a pass, due to being from Sims 1, at least.
