They switch what Jewishness means, but no individual switches from being an atheist to being religious just to get one over on gentiles. A secular Jew definitely wouldn't pretend to be Orthodox since they look down on them (though it's harder to see given their constant anti-Christian panic attacks and need to put up a united front against Arabs).
Why are you introducing orthodox jews into this? Are you trying to muddy the conversation by doing so? There's three religious groups of jews: secular/atheist, jew and orthodox. All three share characteristics of the jewish phenotype, and therefore, genetically jewish.

They were always part of my question. I mentioned them.

The conversation I started? Maybe. My moods shift.

Is a word missing?

So then you see my point it's weird for gentiles to act like having a Jewish mother is more significant than a Jewish father because it doesn't make much genetic difference.

Except for the fact their "holy" books state you are only jewish if your mother is jewish. Don't think to much about this, we are talking about a group that thinks if they do something inside a wire in NYC, their god can't see them committing sins on the sabbath.
