The second statement is an active not a passive statement. It does not say "a remnant of a remnant will survive being broken"
"He shall spill out the blood of those who call themselves Aiel as water on sand, and he shall break them as dried twigs, yet the remnant of a remnant shall he save, and they shall live."
No one thinks the remnant of a remnant will die ... The important statement here is the remnant of a remnant shall he save

As far as I understand it, that future is impossible anyway.

What I am saying is that it's not a "pure bloodline" that makes one an Aiel

You said that redefining the Aiel would allow Aviendha's vision to be possible.
