The current Emperor is needed to maintain the astronomican, create astropaths and hold back the Chaos rift at the heart of his failed webway project. However more importantly the constant stream of psykers sacrificed to feed his mind has swelled his mind beyond  a single human. Much like the eldar's nascent god Ynnead he is now a power to rival Chaos, but neither of these are powerful enough yet. Many millennia must pass before he can die and end the threat of Chaos.
