I mean yes, if they went along due to mob mentality it  could  imply that, but you would have to really stretch your suspension of disbelief. Honestly I think all 10 of them coincidentally having the same opinion in every 10v1 is harder to believe than mob mentality because the siblings are so radically different than each other. I mean it IS entirely possible for that to happen once or twice (take Undie Pressure for example), but it's a stretch to assume that it's the case in all 10v1 episodes, especially considering how many of them there are.

Furthermore, just because somebody goes along with the mob doesn't mean they're angels. We've seen quite a few individually be antagonistic in one episode and go along with the mob in others. Luan and Lola are great examples of this. Both have individually antagonized their siblings in their own episodes and yet also line up with 9 others in other 10v1 episodes when really it wouldn't make sense. Furthermore, Ordinarydude highlighted two prime examples of characters going out of character to fit the mob. Do you really think Lisa would just believe Lincoln is bad luck so easily in NSL? Do you really think tomboys Lynn and Lana would doll up Lucy in BIB? Like I said, it's not always mob mentality, but you would have to really convince me that Lisa and Lynn/Lana respectfully weren't going with the mob in those episodes. It doesn't make any sense with respect their characters.
