Held's child can't be the Patient because she killed her father and her father was... abusive.

and I remember when talking about the vessels, mothy more or less said "they aren't Dragon Balls"

as for inheritor stuff, the idea it's restricted to family lines makes sense (iirc, Rahab's inheritable ability is the Prophetic Dream, exclusive to humans of the Loop Octopus clan + their descendants) my impression is as they were creating humans, they put their powers into certain individuals that could be passed down (whether intentionally or not)

but I wonder how Irina of all people inherited an ability from Salem, when at this point, all the "gods" were buried in Sin, Salem wasn't really considered a god (at least one of worship), and she's an artificial human which pokes a hole in the inheritor family line theory (unless it's like HER, in that it can occur naturally by random chance, or as a result of HER-infected bloodlines)
