Have you not seen Ghost, or something? There is no way in hell those two relationships are even remotely comparable beyond the fact that both pairs consist of siblings.
Makoto had plenty of issues and developments beyond Kanon - accentuated by the fact he's the secondary Rider(who debuted very early on) in a series revolving around just three Riders to begin with. Makoto's character doesn't completely hinge on Kanon. I thought the show made that pretty clear, considering she's safe and sound after the first quarter of the show, but Makoto's conflicts only become more complicated afterwards.

We're in the endgame of Saber and nothing about Reika nor Ryoga have significantly developed in the past 2 quarters of the show. I know the show isn't over yet, but Reika really has gone backwards, if anything. Props to her actress for making Reika seem at least somewhat threatening in the first quarter, I guess.
