assuming slaanesh "made" the eye, I think its quite possible for the eye to be closed again, its basically a gateway where the fabric of reality is too thin to notice, In warp travel you open and close a warp rift, this is just a very big one.

closing the rift would then fix positions on which side of the gate you are on, half of the nids are in, hence "sucked in" not fallen to chaos, like on the battle of mcragge with the warp drives.

yeah the baseless hypothesis is as you said drawn from thin air, but the emp. will need a definitive edge to win, just the retrieved primarchs wont cut it, the SM are a wreck of what they should be. MAYBE the alpha legion turns coat again and delivers the pure primarch gene samples back to Corax, who mass produces the "SM Mk2" again in quick pace. and changes his last words to "evermore" before roflstomping with his new Raven Guardsmen.

Or some superior Tau tech is "Humanized" to give the IG a moment to shine.

Or a full STC is discovered in the bowels of a space hulk bringing the imperium back what it had, skyrocketing the tech level and doing the same as the TAU scenario

Or the old ones reappear

or.......
