I'm aware of all those bands and the early 2000s NYC "scene" doesn't change the fact that The Strokes and Interpol have almost nothing in common musically.
Well there‘a an entire chapter in the Meet Me in the Bathroom book that came out a few years ago about how, in that initial moment at least, Indie music people were either Strokes fans or Interpol fans. There was even a rivalry of sorts between the bands. So you may be off here

That means nothing when posing the question of why one had more mainstream success than the other. One wrote catchy mainstream rock, the other did not. Again, that doesn't make one better than the other.
