I think the marble must be very symbolic ... his brother is "unbendable' in any way.
Doesn't the Japanese culture believe energy lies within stones? Curious

Quite a few cultures believe there are stages all souls progress through, that minerals have spirit, then plants, and work your way on up. (We're only the middle level).

Even if Theseus is stiff and unyielding, there are woods that are like that. Have you ever split Elm for firewood? Its like it has grain running both ways. Where most woods kind of crack and fly apart, Elm fights you and you end up having to power-rip it, instead of any clean, easy, well-defined split.

Don't you wonder how one brother is flaky-ish and the other so stiff? ...And they both like the same woman.

.

you are right about the woods ... there are woods that are very unbendable. so, yes, I wonder why they went with marble?

As for the other ... sibling rivalry perhaps??
Or maybe (even though they are very different personalities), since they are brothers, they have the same morels?

I was able to watch the first movie again ... the crowd mentions that Theseus was a 'war hero' (at least, that is what I thought I heard)
in the scene where Tina opens the trunk in front at the Macusa. Is it possible that war has made Theseus's heart as 'cold as marble'?


and on a completely different note ... what are the odds of JKR making Ariana an obscurus? (I really don't want it to happen, but knowing JKR and how she loves to twist things 'after the fact')
