Have you ever heard the expression "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach"? Notice how it's the word "who", not "whom"


That isn't the same syntactically because they aren't indirect objects (indirect objects inflect to "whom.")

"Those" in the title is the indirect object and its objects and relative pronouns/clauses could not reference it as a subject or a nominative.

E.g. "For whom can teach" (also not a complete sentence)
