Haleivi:
I’m still not sure what you are trying to say. Tosafos clearly has two elements to his case which I think are mutually exclusive:
1)There is another fully Jewish son of the original ger who is available for Yibum.
2)There is no inheritor of the original ger.
The reason why I think they are mutually exclusive is that by definition if he is eligible for yibum then he would be an inheritor. Popa is trying to avoid this issue by killing off anyone he can get his hands on but I don’t see how you are avoiding it.
