Inheritance on Hireling

I'm not sure whether this works in the way I think it does, so stop me if I'm wrong about something.

You get the cost of Hireling down to $4 by means of Bridge or some such card. Wheee, you can Inherit it! Your Estates are now Action-Duration-Victory cards.

You play an Estate or several. Each of them is a Hireling, and gives you +1 Card per turn forever.

You then buy Inheritance again, and Inherit a different card...

...
Hireling's effect is on-play, not "while this is in play", so your Hirelings are still giving you +1 Card/turn
But the Estates are no longer Hirelings, so they aren't tracking anything, and thus get discarded in clean-up.

Centuries later, archaeologists discover the remains of your ancient civilization.

Evidence of thriving towns, Pottery, roads, and a centralized government amaze the startled scientists.

Finally, they come upon a stone tablet, which contains but one mysterious phrase!

'ISOTROPIC WILL RETURN!'

Ah. That makes sense.
