One of them wanted to use their powers for the common good, while the other wasn't adverse to using them for her own purposes?

That couldn't be farther from the truth, when you consider that Thunder joined the Outsiders and Lightning joined the JSA. Their team affiliations arerelated to this question though

Was that Lightning has powers similar to their father while Thunder's are different in nature? Not this either. It wasn't the nature of their powers, but it's more related to using their powers

Why was Thunder jealous of Lightning's treatment by their father Black Lightning? (note: I am looking for a specific instance/action - there are 2-3 possible answers)
- NOT because Lightning used to recharge her dad's phone while all thunder could do was smash it
- NOT quite because one of them was studious while the other got into trouble for staying out late, BUT studying had a bit to do with one of the possible answers
- One of them was let off for something while another was not , but it was NOT for having a boyfriend or for using powers poorly.
- Powers did have something to do with it
- but NOT because Lightning's powers were more similar to their father's
- and NOT because one wanted to use her powers for good while the other wanted to have personal gain
- BUT their team affiliations (Thunder with Outsiders, Lightning with JSA) is related to one of the answers

Was it that he was more accepting of Lightning becoming a super-hero than Thunder?

YES! he made Thunder get a college degree first, but let Lightning join the JSA as a hero in training before she graduated. Thunder was understandably pissed
also, when Black Lightning got involved with the Outsiders again he became a fugitive. Thunder helped him, but Lightning brought the JSA to being him in. Black Lightning tries to reason with Lightning, saying he knows she will listen to him. In a perfectly understandable move, Thunder goes, “I’m the one helping you and she’s trying to arrest you, but SHE’S the reasonable daughter????”
for someone so smart, Black Lightning can be so dumb!

Yay! I figured that would connect to Lightning joining the JSA as well!

Early All-Star Squadron Villain The Feathered Serpent claimed his origin involved making a discovery that others had failed to make. Which fictional character (not a DC Comics Character) did he cite as having attempted but failed to make the discovery, thus implying that this character is real on Earth-2?

Not Dr. Evil.
Hint: J. L. Stephens is mentioned as another who searched for but failed to find the thing in question.
