I agree that you need to destroy their legacy but disagree that that's what it takes to do it. The revolutionaries in China took the last emperor and made him a gardener. I understand that things happen in these situations and sometimes the quick solution is chosen, but overall I think it's better to eliminate their power by scattering their wealth and converting their children.
