AHC Frederick the Great manages to gain only his claims in Silesia?

Your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to create a scenario where after the conclusion of the War of Austrian Sucession, Prussia only gains the lands in Silesia on which the Hohenzollerns have claims rather than taking basically the whole thing.

Finally, what would be the consequences of this relatively minor conquest of Silesian territories on Austria and Prussia itself?

Surely less manpower, giving Fritz more difficulties in the 7YW.

On another hand, there would not be a 7YW with a more fair Silesian division. Austria would be less hostile.

I'd think the Austrians would have to reconquer most of Silesia for this to happen, but also to need to get Frederick out of the war to focus on other enemies. Some POD during the Second Silesian War, perhaps?
