The question is why does that matter? Starship is a private company, not a governmental organization. Kpop has a LONGGGGG history of favoritism and bias. Ever since Sooman kicked out members of his 1st gen groups that he didn’t like or weren’t useful to him. At the end of the day it’s about subjective bias AND the bottom line. If one member is pulling more unit sales, why not advertise them more? Makes business sense. There’s too many examples to list and often times it gets ignored because it doesn’t align with agendas of antis or haters.
As for the fans, they can complain but they have to put their money where their mouth is. Money talks , bulls*t walks.
