What I find interesting is that Pedro is also the heir-general (in accordance with the order of male-preferred primogeniture) of Infanta Maria Teresa of Spain, who became the queen consort of the famous "Sun" King Louis XIV of France. The Anjou exclusion prevented the descendants of Duke Philippe (the grandson who was the second son of the eldest son, and who assumed the Spanish throne as King Felipe V) from succeeding to the French throne.
That has not stopped the Legitimist faction from pressing claims on the French throne, or French claimants from pressing claims on the throne of Navarre.
