*When the Unforgiven say that they're willing to do ''anything'' to keep their secret safe, they're not kidding; murdering brother Astartes is pretty fucked up by the moral compass of most loyalist Chapters, for the Dark Angels however it's not something which they will hesitate to do or agonize about later as long as they keep their secret safe and "honour" intact. In fact, it's probably not too big a stretch to say that no other loyalist Chapter is as close to being excommunicated from the Imperium as the First Legion and it may even have already been so were they not tolerated due to their strength and importance.

*The Black Templars have not forgotten about this incident, and have strong suspicions as to the eventual fate of their battle brothers; despite their apparent mutual affinity for entering battle dressed in robes, the Dark Angels (whom were already regarded with suspicion by the Templars' for their rampant secrecy) are now openly distrusted even more than the Templars distrust any Chapter who aren't sons of [[Rogal Dorn]], which is saying a lot as the Templars distrust pretty much everyone anyway. Seeing as how the Templars are at or above Legion strength, and could probably count on support from the [[Space Wolves]] who are also well above Codex strength and whose not-so-friendly rivalry with the sons of Lion El'Johnson has on occasion spilled into open conflict, we could make the supposition that if the Unforgiven weren't at or near Legion strength themselves then the Templars and Space Vikings might have tired of waiting for the [[Inquisition]] to dig up the Dark Angels secrets and taken matters into their own hands. The Dark Angels sure do like making powerful enemies! (To be fair, the Dark Angels have known ties with all their successor chapters, and have been known to take the field at above-Legion strength in the past by combining forces with these successors.)

* A recent event (as in its form the new Iyanden supplement) reveals Dark Angels only seem to care about the
Imperuim
finding out their little secret, as a similar even happen when Iyanden was fighting a chaos mini-empire ruled by a Fallen. Only here the Dark Angels didn't hunt down and kill the Eldar (granted it may be due to their use of the Webway). Meaning they're more willing to
Trust
and work with Xeno Scum than
Imperuim
forces. Of course, it's not like the Eldar are going to tell anyone in the Imperium, or know about the Dark Angel paranoia. Of course seeing how the Eldar only turned him over because they've read their minds...
