Sat Siri Akal.
The nature of evolution is diversity-it allows life to be more resiliant, more strong. There are different branches of Sikhism-but they all come from the same trunk of Gurbani. Naamdhari's hold the Guru's bani as higher than any person, just as any other Sikh. They happen to have a Sat Guru as a person, that's all.
The maya of all this is that people argue with each other about whether they "should" or "shouldn't" whether it's "right" or "wrong." But the fact is, these people exist. It is God's will they exist. Only God knows why He created them. So the best study is to discover our similarities and learn to live together harmoniously. Be the best Sikh you can be, don't worry about whether or not anyone else is a good or proper Sikh. Meditate and know yourself. Everything else is just a distraction.
Sincerely,
GPK
