1) DNA is how you reclaim Punjabi tribes and groups which deny their heritage or were forcefully assimilated into other grouos: e.g. Awans who claim Arab roots, Sudhans, Hindkos, and Swatis who claim to be Pashtuns, etc

3) Relying on things like culture alone leads to things like Ganga monkeys claiming to be the rightful owners of our land
