 I think you can assume Dunyain genetics actually are screwed up - if I remember right Kellhus casually remembers learning about face muscle structure from skinned/pinned "defectives" in Ishual, his kids are all screwed up, etc. In-story they take it as "the seed is too strong" or whatever, but there may have been tons of birth defects that were killed/experimented on/whatever, and the ones we meet are just the ones whose genetic abnormalities make them superman?
