How come so many chapters have unknown primarchs ? (sh.itjust.works)

Hi, as title says. Seeing how the the gene seed are supposed to be tested regularly by the admech for mutation / chaos corruption, shouldn't it be super easy to run a quick analysis from a gene seed dna sample to and get a match that way ?

I get that 10000 years is a long time, but some dna material from the primarchs has to still be in there for the space marine making process to work right ? For the same reason the blood angels successor chapters still have the red thirst inherited from sanguinus.

Thanks!

Kinda like how the Blood Ravens found artifacts relating to their past on Kronus but were so horrified by what the found that they just destroyed them IIRC.
