Is this a random encounter with an alternate universe where characters use the sibling metaphor for relationships instead of the childhood friend one?

It is just the way Japanese address each other. Especially among young people, those a few years older are addressed as "big sister" and "big brother" (oneesan and oniisan respectively). People old enough to be your parents are addressed as auntie and uncle (obasan and ojisan).
Hiyori has been longing for a big sister to spoil her, and latched on to Kaede.

I know, but in this case, their relationship has a context that plays on the fact that they are surrogate sisters since Hiyori can't be her "childhood friend."

Some people haven't been paying attention.
Wait why did this get retranslated
The original group removed their releases a couple of years ago. krslvsasuka has been gradually filling the gap since then.

No, while that is a thing, Hiyori explicitly made Kaede her actual "fake big sister" in the same way that Kaede and Kouhei are "fake childhood friends." Nothing to do with normal Japanese forms of address.
