[Most people do not understand Kal's bond with his family- his biological family. They don't understand the bond he has with every single little thing from Krypton, as irrelevant as it might seem to an outsider.
They assume he's overprotective, annoying and needy. And all of that is true. But they don't know what growing up thinking he was alone, that he was the only legacy a whole species, a whole planet had left. He'd latched onto every little thing, every little memento of the planet he had been born into but never known. And then Kara had arrived.
Kara was the only other Kryptonian left, and the moment he'd met her and heard her speak Kryptonian to him- perfectly unguilded Kryptonian, with no trace of accent- he'd promised himself he'd protect her no matter what. And now she's left, and he hasn't kept his promise.
So he does what his ancestors always did, and tries to give it a scientific focus.]
