The church Joseph Smith started died with him. What was left were a bunch of sheep to be herded. Several go getter church members started herding the sheep. You ended up with a few splinter groups and some unfortunately survive today. Brigham Young’s group became the biggest and richest.

With the Corporation of Sole there will be no splintering. Too bad. We won’t see a strong woman start a splinter group and have a revelation to have multiple husbands.
