Hi, What I wrote was that the Primarch sample/data was lost (meaning it was lost to the Imperium). I did not write the particular sentence you are referring to so I can't answer the question. I added similar info to the Primarch article, in the section Lost Future of the Primarchs: "Additionally, the pure Primarch gene-stock sample was lost during the Horus Heresy after it was given to the Raven Guard and contaminated by a Chaos taint, and was stolen by the Alpha Legion. " This is my position in this. Now, I suppose one could say that since in the intervening years nothing has come out of the stolen gene-seed, then it means that it was irreparably damaged and the Alphas were left with junk in their hands. I did not make that argument, but whoever did has a logical basis for it, I think.
