I read the test results against the strands of hair were inconclusive. If Rachel is his granddaughter (odds are she is), then the direct DNA match on the Somerton Man will result in the same Family Trees.
The only difference is that you'll have a refined determination of the degree of familial match that's could be somewhat better that a general 1st to 2nd cousin match or equivalent to professor Julian Randolph Pleasants. If the equivalent is basically the same, then you're just confirming you had the right family tree and the right branches were looked at.
P.S. Professor Pleasants' mother was listed as a ballet dancer in a local ball, which I believe was a costume ball, so I'm not saying she or TSM or any of her brothers or relatives were ballet dancers.
