I know that if you take an HQ with a mark of chaos it unlocks the relevant marked unit as troops, but can you still take said marked unit as an elite choice? This way you could have a total of 9 squads of berserkers for example (not that you would want to, I'm just curious).

“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

The rule stipulates...

p93 (for Typhus) - In a primary detachment that includes Typhus, Plague Marines are troops choices instead of elites.

It doesn't say "may be treated as". It says plainly that they are treated that way instead of elites. You can only run 6.

It's the same for Lords and the other SCs that unlock elites as troops.

I'd say same thing as Coteaz and warbands.

They are no longer Elite options and may only be taken as troops.

Same as Logan and WG.

It's not the size of the blade, it's how you use it.
