When I read the IA articles of the Chapters (good and bad) there is mention of psykers within the legions. The Thousand Sons had an abnormal quantity of them. This led me to believe that they did exist in all the Legions and used the same ranking that is used today.
As to the Character conflict between Leliel and Uwala. Leliel is meant to be a typical Fallen that has gone bad. He's a mercenary and is being pulled toward the worship of the blood god. Uwala in contrast, was loyal to the Emperor and saw the benefit of the Great Crusade for humanity. He used his powers to sense out the Fallen that were honorable to offset the influx of Fallen created by Cypher's little knack for calling out the Fallen.
That is my reasoning for the large numbers of Fallen. Cypher pulled the Fallen members of the Angelus Conturbo together through his subtle ability noted in the fluff. Cypher got saved by his mysterious benefactor but the rest of the Fallen were left behind. Since then Leliel has led them in his own way. Uwala accepted Cypher's leadership, but not Leliel's. Thus the rift.
Now Uwala is dead, but Leviticus has taken up the cause and is now beginning to taken on Leliel.
