He's not a member of that clan or sufficiently related to that clan to call it Senju success or failure.

The Senju clan had to have form way after Asura's demise in order to have enough members who all inherited Asura's dilutted genes. Though, you may be right The Uzumaki don't really show the same (level of) ideology that the Senju do with their Will of Fire. It could also be a retroactive thing: Black Zetsu looked for transmigrants among the Uzumaki too, but found one among the Senju and Senju thereafter. So he simply omitted clans that didn't produce Transmigrants despite being eligible for them (ie Uzumaki).
