... Kylo was most likely lying ...

That's not remotely supported by either the script or the performance of that scene. For one thing, when Kylo does lie (to Hux), he's bad at it. For another, that whole plot line has been built around the idea that reinterpreting the truth is more seductive than a lie. Ironically, the Sith tend to be more honest in the Star Wars universe than Jedi. "Darth Vader killed your father" vs. "I am your father."

Claiming Rey as a sister or cousin would be more seductive than crushing her fantasy. It wouldn't work because Rey knows her parents are nobodies, and admits it.

While I don't think he was consciously lying, I also think that it was played and written in a way that made it seem like him not actually telling her the truth but rather echoing her own thoughts and beliefs back at her. At the very least, that's the loophole/backdoor they could fall back on should they decide to give her a different backstory after all in the next movie.
Personally, I don't mind that she's a nobody but I also woudn't put it past them to change it again.
