& yet not a technicality too. The personness of the landed person, esp. with the Duchy, follows the land. He really should be Lancaster now, by inheritance. The big technicality revealed is the legal fiction that all lands are the king’s, “returning” to him without attainder.

Yes, absolutely. This is a vital point and related to Giant’s accusation “landlord if England, thou art.” But Bolingbroke exploits that difference to suggest that his former title and rank rather than him, the man, was exiled.
