URINATORS a good chapter, but with a critical incontinence issue.
But of course due to marine enhancements their urine would be acidic, poisonous and flammable.
With them the words "P--- on them!" wouldn't be an insult, it's be an attack command...

Calculators - They weren't too much use on the battlefield, but their logistics were second to none. Unfortunately, they had an odd sense of superiority of unknown origins and let everyone know it when they wrote in a peculiar garbled language to show their self proclaimed "elite" status. They were eventually decommissioned entirely after their near incomprehensible messages greatly annoyed the machine spirits and their geneseed data was "lost to an unscheduled data dump".

The Litigators: Transinhuman lawyers who attack the enemy with motions and filings so ludicrous and inane it shatters the mind of anything capable of rational thought with questions like "What is the definition of is?"
They twist the very fabric of reality until even the most corrupt chaos forces flee in revulsion.
Project terminated when the chapter, trapped in a warpstorm en route to an ork invasion and lacking other targets, sued itself out of existence.

Do they get a bonus to hit/wound against units who contain components not from the most current edition of that unit's box?

The Distributors.
A chapter that is unique in that it does not specialize primarily in combat bur rather is distributing vital supplies to the most vital imperial forces in a theater. They gather data quickly thru a large network of small, fast, stealthy ships, determine which imperial forces are the most vital at a given time, determine what supplies they need most, then see to it they receive them as quickly as possible.
While they are not meant to engage in combat they do so when necessary to achieve their goal, such as when their rapid strike delivery cruisers and logistical battle barges smash thru orbital defenses to deliver supplies to vital ground forces.
In one infamous incident they utterly annihilated a DKoK force who was using vast amounts of ordnance to shell a rebel hive city that had been utterly depopulated 3 years earlier so they could appropriate their hoarded ordnance and deliver it to an IG army fighting an enemy that was still very much an active threat, resulting in the destruction of an ork gargant force spearheading a until then successful conquest of a strategically vital imperial world.
The Distributors have also on occasion delivered cyclonic torpedo warheads and virus bombs to the surface of planets hopeless lost to tyranids.
Despite rarely engaging in actual combat the Distributors have generally improved the performance of imperial forces in theaters they operate in by 30-45%.
(Damn i meant this as a joke but it actually makes sense now that i look at it.)

Are the Irrigators a specialist sub-unit based on the Urinators, or is it the other way around?

Hellblasters were originally intended to wield upscaled multi-barreled rotor-cannons called Volley Guns, before Cawl realized he pulled the logistics from a Feudal World where there was artillery with the same name.
Curiously, references existed to a brass Taurox, despite there being no vehicles beyond those powered by steam.

Reclinors - Provide valuable support to off duty marines
Investors - Experts at choosing which units are worth reinforcing
Disabiguators - This experiment was actually quite successful but they've not yet seen battle since the entire cohort is occupied in making sure the 100 new marine units released each year don't share a name with any existing units.

To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions. It is to live in the cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable. These are the tales of those times. Forget the power of technology and science, for so much has been forgotten, never to be relearned. Forget the promise of progress and understanding, for in the grim dark future there is only war. There is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter, and the laughter of thirsting gods.
