Tanya: Because she was in the original MK4 and thus has relevance (albeit small) to the "return of Shinnok" storyline? That and (in my eyes, inexplicable) popularity among the fanbase. Fan demand correlates with the idea that fans will likely buy her DLC.

Tremor: Again, huge huge HUGE fan demand, thus probable high profits. Also, depending on how the storyline goes, the Black/Red Dragon clans may potentially be wiped out for realzies over the course of the story, so accounting for potential Black Dragon casualties makes sense... especially when you're dealing with the SUPER POPULAR ones. My point was referring to the fact that Tanya was a traitor to Edenia in MK4. Shouldn't she do the same to Outworld being that Outworld is her home due to Edenia being still merged with Outworld?

In fact DLCs have never been a part of the story. At least nothing really important. I wonder if they're in the game but only in the background and not playable with the acception of the DLC.
