Makes sense. Although we have no explanation about their origin, most demons don't seem to have any relation to angels. They may be completely different beings even in the Bible, fallen angels migrating to Hell and progressively imbuing it with their supernatural hatred and ressentement until the whole place festers into a vast demonic "brood nest".

Demons would then be an entirely different species literally made of evil and born from Hell itself. They may be later joined by corrupt human souls reincarnated into demons, pretty close but never entirely "pure like the Daemon princes of W40K. Fallen angels may rules them like some kind of aristocracy if powerful enough, or be overthrown like obsolete relics.
