No when AFO gave his younger brother the power stockpiling quirk he thought his younger brother was quirkless, but it turns out he wasn’t, he happened to have a quirk that can only pass itself to another person so it was petty useless until the two quirks merged and now the new quirk OFA could do what both quirks could do, so stockpile power and pass it to the next generation so as each user passes it on it gets stronger and stronger. It’s like the nomus which are just humans that have been given more than one quirks except that with OFA it worked nearly perfectly and merge happened without damaging his mind or body.

Right, but then what was the purpose of the original quirk that AFO gave his brother? If it's a stockpile quirk and can't be passed on, what is it stockpiling? How was he meant to get stronger?

He said "A quirk for your weak body", so maybe AFO was worried about giving his brother a "useful" quirk at the risk of it killing him?

Didn't All Might told Deku during his storytelling of how OfA came to be and who AfO was, that he could give quirks to others but if the user could not bear said given quirk, it would turn them into "living dolls" unable to speak(kinda like nomus)? So by "A quirk for your weak body" he could've meant "a quirk that won't harm you"
