No recent discussion thread that Im aware of. There are WOJ's relating to it if that helps, and the actual mention of it in the Books happens in Ch 15 of SmF.
--- Quote ---#387 “You mentioned that all of the Knights of the Cross were of royal heritage. Why is this? Does being royal make you more qualified to be one of the Knights?”
It doesn’t make you qualified, so much as it makes you /responsible/. It’s a small but important distinction.
I’ve seen a well-done argument that defined goodness, in the Dresden stories, as power balanced by responsibility–and evil as power without accompanying responsibility to restrain and control it. I liked it.

Roger...thanks...I'm re-reading Small Favor now...I know Sanya and Shiro were both descended from Royalty...I don't remember if Michael knew he was...or if they were going to research it...if it was a pre-requisite to being chosen as a Knight then I wanted Murphy to be descended from Royalty because I wanted her to be the wielder of the Sword of Faith (probably not going to happen now)...but now Butters is a Knight...so is he also a descendant of Royalty?

At the end of SmF Harry gave molly geological homework, she found that her line goes back to Charlemagne. No word on Murphy, Susan, or Butters (though the argument could be that Susan had linage back to The Red King, if that counts).
