I agree Callummacdon lore seems to suggest that. It all presents an interesting quality to the species that the Imperium has not exploited to their advantage. Assuming that they even recognize it, but the Eldar probably did and in turn the Imperium.

If the Imperium can work with the Orks, like with the Blood Axes, more and instill in them thoughts of personal gain and self survival instead of their strong communal instincts the Orks can destroy themselves with further division, selfishness and greed. Their psychic qualities will help spread this quickly, not to mention their explosive tempers. Military covert operations to instill fear and distrust must also be used (Raven Guard). Demoralization by pining them against formidable foes like the Necrons. Maybe even opening some Chaos portals in Ork homeworlds (the Inquisition does look away sometimes) to either slaughter them or cause a religious schism (hopefully). Booster the Bad Moons vanity into a full blown superiority complex and maybe start a cultural war with them and the Snakebites. Then attack heavily, life 40 chapters and 300 regiments heavy. Soon the Orks would start to see themselves as an inferior force in the galaxy then their psychic exacerbation qualities would start making it a reality.

Unfortunately, for the Imperium, this psychic quality has only been an advantage to the orks, but I'm saying it can be HUGE disadvantage.

It would be the end of the Orks, but nobody has time for that.
