THEY NEVER HAD A CHANCE
Necrons' whole "we are an extremely advanced spacefaring civilization but also Bronze Age Egypt" thing is funny in a lot of ways, but my favorite one just has to be the crypteks' whole deal.
Because they are, like, scientists. In the way that would probably be (save for those of T'au) closest to the way we understand the term. They have specializations. In fact, with how advanced necrontyr technology was, and how short their lifespans were, they would probably be incredibly hyperspecialized to the point that two plasmancers from slightly different sub-fields of study would barely be able to understand each other.
But in the necron society they play the role of the Wise Men, the Priests, the Scribes - old and wise keepers of all manner of knowledge at the king's side, always ready to talk at length about the mysteries of the universe...
Like, Trazyn's long-suffering buddy Sannet is a dimensionalist. Probably spent his entire mortal life to become one. But he works as a museum curator... because he is a cryptek. And it's crypteks who handle all the nerd shit like "writing things down", right? And yeah, I guess he needs the expertise to handle all of Trazyn's stasis toys (he is probably the one who makes them for him, come to think of it) - but it doesn't change the fact that my man is as far from his homefield as he could be.
Essentially, what I am saying is that Necrons treat PhDs in the same way that Hollywood movies tend to - as a mark of belonging to an order of mystics, not as a professional specialization. And I think it would be hilarious if it was ever acknowledged:
'Come, Zuldarekh, your phaeron calls. Tell me of this stellar anomaly and how I could use it for the glory of the dynasty!'
'I... uh.. fuck, man, I don't know. I am a floramancer. Do you want to know about the effect that cross-pollination strategies have on mutation rates in plants in a particular region of that planet over there?'

Orikan's battery, or just another random Tzeentch-corrupted cryptek. Not so lucky.
my Geomancer! :D
