After Leto died spice was at a premium and dwindling, unlikely any Atreides could have amassed enough spice essence to become a KH.

In Chapterhouse, they were scrimping on what they had, sending out precious amounts with sisters and sandtrout to other worlds. Unable to create as many RM's as they wanted etc.

I agree with you it would have been very hard for a KH to be created A.L., due to the diluted genes after being freed from his breeding program.

Could there be another Atreides KH? maybe before Leto died, but afterwards the dillution reduced that risk.

Teg is a whole new story, a new power unleased. I wonder, did Leto move as fast, or slower then Teg?

Destroying Dune was necessary, Teg wiped out HM's like they were ragdolls, and they were scared shitless of him, and with the unknown the HM's policy is destroy, at ALL costs.

Idaho too because he was able to enslave a HM and this could NOT be allowed to continue or knowledge shared with other males or the HM's would lose their hold on the masses.
