Yeah exactly. Normal inheritance means their kids or spouse inherit, and the number of billionaires remains the same.

Fun fact, if I were to inherit the wealth of a billionaire family member who was shot in public I’d get philanthropic real fast!

I was thinking about this the other day. If I had half a trillion dollars (like the guy who just bought the presidency) I would spend it building a city from scratch. A walkable/bikeable city with free public transportation. I don't have enough expertise to speak about affordable housing ideas, but with that amount of money I can pay someone to come up with some good regulations. Don't know why but that'd be my passion project.
