Why expose the fact that your ancestry is abscure? You could have just fit in with other people
Honestly all these lineages are fake anyways , they are not based on blood relationship. Somalis are just a bunch of mixture of different horner groups and clans which have always interbreed with each other. Because of the high interbreeding between Somali clans we somehow seem more homogeneous then we actually are.
Just like Reer Xamaris are a mixture of different groups, so the lineages are not something to be attached to as a source of identity. Tbh
This is the Somali mentality in real life. Claim everyone and anyone who speaks Somali and lived in the Somali peninsula as one of them. It's only on the internet you find these fanatical purists who harp on about "ethnic Somali", haplotypes, e1b1b1a1b, 23&me, Somaal, xeer, etc.
Truthfully, I don't know what is worse. Either these lineages are true and you are far more divided than you believe, which is what you are hinting at and possibly accept, or you believe in the narrative pushed by the puritans and that you essentially destroyed your entire country over a false descent to Arab patriarchs. Both possibilities spell doom for the future of your nation.
