I find it pretty upsetting that Louis thought Domi was luckier and more loved than him. Make no mistake I am not saying that Louis didn't suffer because he obviously did, and his envy he had for Domi was justified, it just that they suffered in different ways, and it's not like he actually knew how his sister suffered.
I get this impression that Louis assumed that Domi was loved and appraciated because she was kept around, but frankly the Sade household isn't really functional either. As she has told him Domi was forced into all the noble bs, and rather than loved she was and still is constantly taunted and belittled by the family, say, Veronica and Antoine. The fact that she always looked forward to going to Averoigne seems to stemmed from the lack of compassion that she received in her household rather than simply strict noble upbringing. Domi is so deprived of agency that she picked up Louis' personality to toughen herself up, and devotes her entire life purpose to Noé. Even when she was lost in an existential crisis, the persona that replicates Louis (the stronger and wiser one) was the one that guided her way.
Domi's childhood is so tragic and unstable that her entire identity is a a projection of the two figures that had given her affection in her primitive years. And even now, she still bases her entire life purpose on Noé, rather than any motivation that she creates within herself. She literally sees no worth in herself but a desperate attempt to protect what has given her love. And yes Jeanne has also given her genuine affection but Domi hasn't accepted herself to sincerely open up to it without feeling inferior.
Louis and Domi are that one pair of tragic twins, but their respective tragedies are vastly different.
