Why is it that all my ancestor relationships are based on my mother's side, none on my father's side, even though I know the ancestor in question is my paternal xGGF? This can be interesting in a way, but mainly quite annoying.

Geni Support Team Hi Robin, Geni will calculate the closest blood and in-law path to you/focus person, if either can be found.
Otherwise, you may be seeing the one which was cached or calculated first. Paths can be refreshed one week after the initial path is found. If changes have been made to the tree and you would like to recalculate the relationship path sooner, please contact a curator.
Also, please keep in mind that missing branches and pending merges can also prevent the closest relationship from calculating. If you know a closer connection exists, then you may want to review your tree to see if there are any pending merges or missing branches.
