Same god, different forms of worship. Christains, Jews and Mohammedans (Islamics?) are all worshipping the same god, last time I looked. Are we all bonkers?
Yanafal is worshipped independently in the major lunar centers, where there is enough of a following to support independent temples.
The Seven Mothers is a missionary cult found mostly on the edges of the Empire, converting the barbarians. 7M is the simplistic introduction to the Lunar Pantheon.
BTW, didn't I mention that I think of the 7M sub-cults more as specializations?
