There is a slight problem with that rule - namely, TSR's official sources
disagree. For an example, I direct your attention to Mhoried. IIRC, both
the Mhor and his son have the exact same bloodline strength and score. Did
the Mhor give birth to his son without the benefit of a wife? :) There are
other examples like that (the Diems, I think, as well as the Roesones).
