[Robyn Stewart]

I would cast further than that. I don't see that "nature abhors a 
vacuum" is especially relevant to Spock's nepotism here. He's just 
saying that he wants there to be a succession, and trying to 
encapsulate it in a pithy saying. I might go with Dal pagh jagh, but 
mataHmeH maSachnIS, and indeed many from TKW seem relevant here.
