Deletion of Faustus Cornelius Sulla (grandson of Sulla)

Comment: On the one hand a Cornelius Sulla, grandson of Sulla, ''did'' exist. Ronald Syme (''The Augustan Aristocracy'' (Oxford: 1986), pp. 261 & 265) mentions him twice. However, he is nothing more than a genealogical link between one notable person (Sulla) & a pair of other notable men (the Cornelii Sullae who were consuls in 31 & 33); more could be said about his son, Sulla Felix, who is at best borderline notable. (An argument could be made for Sulla Felix, but I wouldn't be convinced by it.) Most importantly, |notability is not inherited: his strongest claim for notability otherwise is that he ''might'' have been a member of the Roman Senate. (Augustus twice purged the Roman Senate to reduce its numbers from over 1,000 to 600 members; this Cornelius Sulla might have been expelled at one of those times. We have no way to know.){{pb}}As a last note, I considered the option of "Merge", but there is nothing here to merge. And I tried to find a way to do just that: the easiest explanation for how the two consular Cornelii Sullae are related to their famous ancestor is to say "direct descendant" thru their father; it would be awkward & pointless to mention this person in their articles
