For every inheritance case that would be solved, we'd probably be 
declaring someone else to be a mamzer if we accept DNA. Is it worth it?

IMHO DNA is a real Pandora's box which it seems that poskim are taking an approach that to an outsider might be viewed as pragmatic (vs intellectually mandated) by accepting it as a secondary sirgn but not primary so as to specifically not get into the parentage issue.  What will happen when everyone's dna/genetic map is available feom a simple stick test?
