None of those things are true, retard. Imperial Primer isn't actual source. Tau can react just fine when fighting fucking Space Marines and definitely can keep up physically with Humans.

Yes, you fucking can. Hive Fleet Gorgon uses purely physical, biological means to adapt and bully Nurgle.
>Such is the ingenuity of Gorgon's capabilities, they have even been known to overwhelm the supernaturally-virulent warp plagues of the Death Guard.
10th Codex of Death Bugs, page 28.
If Imperium and Tau can't just make vacinne against Nurgle demon-pox, that isn't proof you can't do it, that's proof Imperium and Tau have a skill issue and should get good. Imperium is too retarded to get good but Tau might get good, they already have experimental weapons that can burn through Warp-based stuff that Chaos uses.
>Amenex Soulrend, Exalted Sorcerer of Tzeentch, unleashes his Silvered Sons against the newly founded sept world of Dy'aketh. While his Rubric Marines march through recently constructed conurbations and laboratory-complexes, incinerating all in their path with salvoes of incendiary rounds, Soulrend and his personal retinue head deep underground.
>Far beneath the planet's crust lies an Earth caste research facility, which has spent several months studying a strange artefact – a sceptre crafted from voridium crystals that thrums with barely suppressed energy. Just as Soulrend nears the priceless relic, he is assailed by experimental battlesuits and Fire Warriors wielding super-charged pulse carbines. These weapons fire searing beams of green-white fire that burn through even the warp-blessed armour of Soulrend's warriors.
>Battle lines are drawn as sorcery meets cutting-edge technology, and the fires of war consume Dy'aketh."
