Also if we aren't the 2nd, just say "fellow model unit" or something.

My write in I did was to play on the fact that we are both Techpriest and Primarch, which is how I kinda want us to greet the Imperium. We know we're a created being, living tools blessed with common purpose. But we're also still human ya know. The duality of man and machine.
There's also no indication we are the 2nd Primarch. Iirc Talos does remember when he was in the pod before being warped away, so maybe he had time to look at the numbers on the glass. I dunno how QM wants to handle Talos number, maybe we could even be the true 21st? Eitherway, I want to posit that 2nd could be fitting. In canon, the 2nd went to the libraries on Terra and discovered the existence of the Ygma device, a planet sized object able to project a sphere of "pure order", likely pariah field, able to repel entire warp storms. This is something I can see Talos absolutely doing But this is tangential.
