The BoS lore is all over the place because they are used for whatever is more convenient to the story.

In their defense the brotherhood is a very large faction that spread throughout the entire country with the east and west having very different motives and opinions. This is also mostly because of Elder Maxon who took control and is extremely genocidal.

True. But also I will say that the Brotherhood changes depending on their leadership, which changes a lot. Maxson's BOS even had different ranks than Lyons's BOS.

Canticle for Leibowitz is the book that inspired the Brotherhood of Steel faction.
