I think the Inheritance section assumes that the Capp family follows a maternal line from oldest to youngest. However, that may not be the case. If you look at the Capp family bio, then it implies that Juliette Capp is the heiress, living in Capp Manor. If Juliette Capp is the heiress, then it may mean that the title (probably Countess) and property (county) are handed down to her by her mother, Cordelia Capp, perhaps the favorite of Contessa. In ''King Lear'', Goneril and Regan are the villains, while Cordelia is the nurturing, nice one. So, I'm going to argue that Goneril, despite being the eldest, is dethroned from being heiress, and so is Regan. The inheritance passes to Cordelia Capp, which then falls to Juliette Capp, the eldest of Cordelia.

:Just because it implies that Juliette is the heiress of the Capp family does not necessarily mean that the inheritance passes on to her. And just because it may be that way in Shakespeare's plays does not necessarily mean the same applies to the Sim parodies of the Shakespeare characters. ― <span style="font-family:'Constantia'; font-weight:bold; font-size:108%;">[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font-family:'Adobe Garamond Pro'; font-size:108%;">([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]])</span> 22:22, July 1, 2017 (UTC)

:So, your interpretation is that Juliette is the heiress who does not inherit? What kind of "heir" is that? Traditionally, if a person is heir, then that heir inherits everything. So, I stay with my original contention. Also, if real-life Shakespearean characters doesn't translate into Veronaville's characters, then how can you justify that the inheritance will pass down to Miranda Capp through Goneril? Honestly, if you want parsimony, I suggest removing the Inheritance section altogether and letting the player decide who inherits what.
