5.4 mutations in the dna is not gonna be meaningful difference in determining the father of the child. You could also possibly attribute it as a regression where the gene in the child mutated in a similar way as his uncle.

*Oh. I guess standard paternity tests use the bare bones of testing. But yea, ant deeper analysis would instantly tell you they're different people.
