This is why having a Word for something that is likely to end is a poor idea, and having too many Word-bound on related subjects is a poor planning by the Seraphim Council.

The way out of that trap for an individual celestial is to expand their Word to a more abstract concept that includes the old Word. If there are several Word-bound on closely related subjects, they'll be competing for fewer expanded Words, and some will lose out, and then die.
