Oh I agree that it would have made more sense to communicate more, but I also got the sense that the Pillars and Stygian were not near as close as the Mane 6 are. Yes he brought them together, but they seemed to view each other as allies first and friends second, and were more inclined than modern ponies to assume nefarious purposes in things. It was a much harsher time after all.
Heck just look at how Stygian assumed that because they threw him out none of them cared any more.
It does all lead to some fascinating possibilities for future stories if the show's writers choose to pursue any of these dangling questions and plot threads.
