johnny was never meant to ever get tusk by normal means.he got tusk via the corpse part and kept evolving him through the use of spin...and a little bit of jesus sprinkled in there.

i dont think they are as connected as you say because until tusk act 3,tusk was never truely johnny's stand.

but yeah hamon and spin are very much alternatives for each other.

but sbr and part 1 arent that connected.

That's not how Stands work though. Your Stand is your Stand, it's your own psychological energy made manifest. It doesn't matter how you get it. Johnny may have been fated to get Tusk, but it's still definitively his own Stand. The corpse just served as a sort of crutch until Johnny had the mental strength to control it himself.

In the Civil War fight, Johnny is still able to use Tusk ACT 2 after he loses his corpse part but before he gets ACT 3.

SBR is a reimagining of Parts 1,2, and 3. Elements of an three get worked in to the story combined with its original bits. There's no way to prove my theory of course but it's still fun to think about and I think it makes sense.
