Is it a genetic bottleneck, or is it "We'd rather not understand Jewish DNA so much?"

Did you not read the linked article? One point FTA that might have some bearing: "Nobody had analyzed Jewish ancient DNA before because of prohibitions on the disturbance of Jewish graves. However, we did not know this until after doing the genetic analyses."
Yep. Funny thing, people with Jewish DNA aren't all buried in Jewish graveyards.
