So the intention is to use Q19798647 as a random
place holder
specifically for Wikibase entities without a value, but not as a "no value"
placeholder for a person? I think it is useful in the way you describe it,
but I am curious how you would model the source B saying that "X had no
child"

Hoi,
Sorry for being dense.. What is wrong with there being no value ?
Having a
"no value" is imho understanding only a
complication of saying
nothing...
Why not say nothing in the first place ?
It is important for cases like the following for example: Source A
says "X had a child" and source B says "X had no child".
Cheers
Lydia
