So? Big whoop, it's a non-issue. You can leave your estate to anyone you please, and that's all this is doing. Descendents are not OWED an inheritance, it doesn't belong to them until it's given to them and these grandparents have every right to decide who gets it because it's theirs to do with as they wish. The state should absolutely not interfere, and it's good to see they did not.
