****The reason why Synergy needs to be kept secret seems to make sense if we use the comics released by IDW Comics: Synergy is an advanced AI and poses a danger by its very existence. Not because it can project holograms, but because it could initially be used by malicious individuals who would eventually lose control over it. Synergy basically has the potential to become a Skynet.

** In Rio's defense, as early as the 3rd episode he tried to distance himself from Jem because he knew it would complicate things with Jerrica. And I'm pretty sure he attempted it later too. However Jerrica always convinced him to stick around as manager because "Jem" needed him and she didn't mind their closeness. So it's not like he doesn't know how it looks and isn't complicated himself, but whenever he tried to do the "right" thing the very girlfriend he was trying to avoid cheating on would push him towards this other woman. So the problem is almost entirely on Jerrica's end, as he chose Jerrica over Jem right away and tried to make it clear but she kept giving him mixed messages and not let him avoid Jem.

*** Also, when the Rockin' Roadster was hanging off the edge of the cliff in the first episode, Jerrica said Rio would be coming this way soon, so she projected a hologram of Jem (who he recognized). So, between finding Synergy and the Battle of the Bands, there must have been an unseen scene in which Jerrica introduced herself to Rio as Jem and told him where they'd be on the following day. WHY DID SHE DO THIS?!
