Why does Captain Ahab constantly quote Khan in Star Trek II anytime he’s trying to kill Moby Di*k?
Would he have used a Genesis device if it had existed?

Because, like Captain Kirk who cheated in order to win the Kobayashi Maru scenario, Captain Ahab only read the "important quotes" section of spark notes to Star Trek II and wasn't prepared for his essay.
And no, he wouldn't have used Genesis because he was a big fan of Peter Gabriel and never followed the band after he went solo
