I know this is probably a nitpick and likely to be wrong, but aren't the Roma descended from Subcontinental Indians? That would mean that a huge portion of the world's population would largely be unaffected instead of the small subsection of the population that Janus was originally meant to preserve.

I'm not a geneticist or anything but would the Roma even be in a distinct haplogroup compared to the other populations of the world?

Some of them might be but the bulk are, AFAIK, either HM82 or one of the European lines since the Roma aren't quite as genetically isolated as, say, the Amish (say, there's an ideal batch to repopulate the world: agricultural and non-industrial pacifists. Shame they don't get vaccinated! Even they don't constitute a distinct haplogroup, though) and there's been plenty of cross-pollination due to breeding and adoption. If you wanted to sterilize most of the world, you'd probably want to select only Australian aborigines or Papuans, since those are the rarest haplogroups AFAIK.
