> soul-successor

I think you just made a new malapropism by getting the "sole" in "sole successor" mixed up with the homophone "soul" and then relating it to "spiritual successor"

Both "sole successor" and "spiritual successor" are accurate descriptions in this case, so it works beautifully.

Heh, thanks!

Being tired and having a different mother tongue has its perks, it seems. :)
