well, first of all, I've been assuming that Bolin and Mako are of mixed parentage (one is from the fire nation colonies and one is from the earth kingdom).

second of all, I think part of the whole conceit of setting LoK in Republic city was to show how bending would be part of a society in the midst of industrialization/modernization (i.e. pro bending, metal-bending police, lightning-bending power plant). And, much like many things from people's cultural ancestry in modern times, the spirituality of it seems to get sidelined for the practical applications.

I can see why it seems more cartoony to you, though, because the whole bending based jobs thing reminds me of the uses of dinosaurs in the Flintstones or pokemon in Pokemon.
