421781 (2014 QG22) vs 53576 (2000 CS47)

These two asteroids are a potentially interesting couple.
I do not know if this couple is already known and if it is really a couple with a common origin.

Let's look at the JPL data, showing very similar orbital parameters:

 I tried to run the Mercury simulator (BS2 integrator, timestep 1 day) with the nominal parameters, with this result (graph done with the R package)
