I'm not certain but I don't think this ever really
happens. In practice the old organisation ceases to
exist and a new one comes into being possibly with
a period of overlap. They may share the same name
and informally be referred to as the same but
technically they are different organisations.

I think this suggests two predicates that are not
present in the ontology -- org:successor and
org:predecessor
