    True, and having large amounts of heirs with no skills or education needs a term like “inheritance imbreeding” since they will end up diluting the wealth-gene pool until they are left with nothing and hopefully go extinct after all the wealth has been absorbed into the general population. Or more likely, absorbed by a grifter.
