Beyond both of our pay grades I think - but I'm sure a climatologist would be able to answer you. Probably the wrong forum to find a detailed answer !I understand that.
But even perfectly thought out science can't deal with what it can't know. IOW, how do we know what we can measure today from those samples is the entirety of what went into them X number of ice ages ago? How many ice ages ago was that, anyway? And if we're trying to predict any very-long-period climate cycle, a few hundred years worth of better knowledge might not be a good enough snapshot to extrapolate out to the next peak. It might be like trying to predict an unknown car's quarter mile ET with hard knowledge of nothing but the time it takes to accelerate from, say, 60.000 to 60.001 mph.
Keep in mind that I'm not saying that either side is wrong here.
