There were two differences.  Genesis was ACTIVE at the time Kirk could have
thought about transporting it away.  They could pick up its energy waveforms
so they could locate the source.  Also, Kirk knew what he was looking for,
having seen all the classified material on project Genesis.  Khan had no idea
whatsoever what Genesis was or did (beyond a few intelligent guesses, I
assume--after all, he did have the superiore inntellect, not to mention
rrich corrinthiann leathherr).
