Well at least the Spanish monarch has a direct control and decision in who gets what title within the wider royal family and ALSO if he/she can take away that title once it's given - an ability *not* allowed to British monarchs. In fact, even worse situations in certain *other* existing European monarchies where the the parliament has completely taken over the initiative and prerogative of deciding who gets a title at all.

I do not understand. What would the fresh approach be?
Could be no ducal title, just leave daughters and any future sons-in-law as they are. Or wait until sons-in-law have proven themselves worthy over time, and then honor them in some fashion. It was awkward what happened with Cristina’s ducal title and in retrospect it would have been better if it had not been granted. And JC’s other son-in-law soon proved to be unworthy as well.
