I think it's for the best to, when referring to her, to use "Kou's Mother" to understand what the character's are saying without confusion or alteration.
I can understand getting annoyed when they change Rin calling Kaku uncle, that's fair, but with an unnamed character like Rin's mom, they really didn't have any options.
Also, concerning the kanji usage on "Ten" in Tenshin, Japan is like, the country of puns. It was probably completely intentional to use a dual meaning with Ten.
Yeah, plus this is only Shout! Factory's second Sentai sub. I don't know if they've does stuff like this before, but it's still probably something you just gotta get a hang for.
And yes, homophonic ten puns!
