Yseribus: That explanation doesn’t make sense. All mesoras or kehilos transmits through the sons. Daughters always follow their husband. That isn’t unique to Yekkes. Furthermore, if the sons would continue the mesora, then the population following these sets of minhagim would continue to grow as each son has, on average, multiple sons of their own. Obviously that isn’t happening.
