[2.3] Jewish vassal temple Rabbis becoming Catholic Bishops on death

[Killer_Whale]

In my CK2 game, I am playing as a Catholic republic (Venice - Carpathia Empire), but I deliberately have a Jewish vassal (Kingdom of Jerusalem). Initially all the temples were Jewish, but when the Rabbis died, all the incoming rulers flipped to Catholic Bishops, rather than staying as Jewish Rabbis. This happened with both free investiture and papal investiture. Counts, Dukes, and the King are all Jewish. Mayors are not flipping, only the Bishop/Rabbis.

This is currently WAD, even if it's not a fancy solution.. What the game does is it checks the religion of the top liege and on the death of the rabbi/bishop etc, spawns a new character with the top lieges religion.

I've brought this up with certain individuals and it may/may not be changed in the future , but that bishops/rabbis etc that holds a church/temple should have the same get the same religion as the current liege does make more sense imo.

Why not check the religion of the direct liege rather than the top liege?

There is a reason why it was designed like this but hopefully they will change it to look for the direct lieges religion instead. I can't however give any guarentees about this.

There is a monumental escheat issue directly connected to this as well.

In short these newly generated "infidel" priests/mayor get revoked by their direct lieges and then they arrive the top liege court with their purse worth of tens or even hundreds years of income intact.

Add the fact that upon the death of the top liege all these lowborns are killed by the house cleaning feature ... and you have a nice inauguration present of thousands of gold for the new ruler.

Wait what, when a lowborn with no heirs die in your court - do you (liege) inherit their gold?
