Fantastic sleuth-work, but I insist that it'd be disingenuous to act as though The Dalek Tapes putting all this info at a remove made the originals’ veracity questionable.

Since Genesis of Evil itself is presented as unquestionable in-universe events rather than a version of history that is itself at a remove, what we have here is one story (Genesis of Evil) saying one thing in earnest, and then another (The Dalek Tapes) having a character find old records which may be reliable, but are in point of fact consistent with said thing.

An individual once recounted or found evidence that indicated the Daleks were created as a result of a similar catastrophe but without Davros's influence (COMIC: The Dalek Tapes) from a race of blue humanoids.

we'd have

According to some accounts, the Daleks were created as a result of a similar catastrophe but without Davros's influence, mutating from an ancestral Thal-opposing race of blue humanoids.
