It's not about what I care about, my question is what is the person supposed to do once they get the results of their private test, and they show they're not the father?

Another issue to me is that they must have provided the DNA of their child to a private entity (probably without telling the mother either) and I'm not sure I like that.

The person is not "supposed to do" anything. It's the norm to let people make free, unrestricted choices as long as all parties involved consent. You generally need a good reason to restrict these activities in Western culture.

In most countries parents are allowed to do all these things. Why change parental rights merely in the case of paternity tests?
