"they weren't wrong but they damaged the Narrative and that was wrong"
Talk to anyone working in genealogy about that exact problem and be ready for hours and hours of stories.
Care to offer reference, as I don’t get the connection?
Sure.

There's two major baskets:

1. Paternity. Sometimes it's tragic when an otherwise good father learns he's not the father. The truth was very inconvenient to the established narrative.

2. Heritability of 'problem' genes in patients/families who request sequencing. You can't really tell a wealthy family that they're both MAOA2/4R carriers and explain what that means without ruffling a ton of feathers.
