So many people do not do this.

I think it's fun that this happens in this story, because it's the opposite of Tendou's reaction to Juka maybe dating someone? Tendou's like MY WORLD IS ENDING, and Tsurugi's like Let's Start Figuring Out The Seating For Your Wedding. Like, a lot of Tsurugi's interest in Misaki is wrapped up in his sister's absence, so I really prefer the idea of Tsurugi pivoting from problematic pursuit of a romantic partner into Supportive Sibling. It's fun! It's only slightly bizarre!
