Peter: I couldn't do this without you, Nat.
Natasha: Sure you could. Not as stylishly, of course.

There's so much I love about watching Midgey grow up, but the one tickling me most at the moment is her absorbing information but lacking the experience to apply it correctly. For example, I'm listening to her right now with Uncle Mike in the bathroom, trying to help by insisting he use the tampon she demanded he take.

The only way I can see Bi-Han being mean or cruel to Kuai is when he's younger its more out of jealousy. Have you seen how little kids sometimes get upset when their parents brings a new baby? It's basically 'How dare you replace me!?' sort of thing and then tantrum ensues.
Obviously they usually get over it but I could imagine for the first years of Kuai's life Bi-Han was definitely a jealous little kid before he got over himself.
I know it sometimes happens, however in my experiences, how a child reacts to a new baby is often connected to how parents raised and prepared said child for the possibility. All kids will deal with the arrival of younger siblings in their own way, but parents contributed a lot to the situation. If someone spoil a kid to the point the kid is proverbial center of the universe and all family attention is only focused on them but then suddenly don’t have anymore a time for said kid because everything now resolved about the new baby, then it is hard to blame the older sibling for feeling resentful against the new member of the family that “stole” all the love. And as much as I can see your point, I feel like acting out of jealousy wouldn’t be true to Bi-Han, at least not in the original timeline. Like, the resentment could be there, sure, but considering how
the boy was chosen to be a Lin Kuei at birth and
his father, then-current Sub-Zero, came from a family already serving Lin Kuei for a few generations,
I suspect Bi-Han’s training was already part of his upbringing since he was born. Maybe not fully the physical aspect, but the iron discipline and obedience (the last one may not always work though). Thus I think that even when baby Kuai Liang came into picture, and later their youngest sister, the father’s attention was aimed mainly at the first-born and preparing him for Lin Kuei life, so he could bring honor to their family and serve the clan well. Bi-Han could be jealous of baby Kuai Liang, could be sad for being forced to share mother’s love with someone else - and that one depends a lot what kind of mother she was on daily basis, so for all we know, Bi-Han actually could enjoy being the big, helpful brother and making her proud in the process - but I don’t think he had a reason to feel threatened by new kid’s presence if the father paid him special attention and spent time to train him for future life. And well, I don’t think kid Bi-Han was allowed to have tantrum attacks over “trivial” matters if he was meant to continue the true family tradition soon. Like, I can't imagine Bi-Han being raised as a spoiled child when father - and maybe mother, depending if she was a Lin Kuei herself or not - already knew his son was meant to start a proper training for assassin life.
