In Response To: Re: My friends? (Bob-B-Q) : Different words for the same device, used by different characters, possibly
: Pulling back to the bigger picture, I would argue that turning the player
: Tycho, like Durandal, well understood both the limitations of Pfhor
Considering how dumb they made the simulacrums and they have to make a cyborg of one of their own to act as a remote controller for their s'pht, and that most of their technology is stolen, this suggests that they don't have a good understanding of how to program A.I. This is necessary for the story because why wage wars to enslave races and sell them when they can just build robots? The Occam's Razor answer would be that they don't know how to make their own robots (they can't be lacking resources with so much of the galaxy at their disposal). But then they have the pfhor drones in M2. Maybe those don't have independent AI and need a remote cyborg controller as well? I mean, if they knew how to make battleroids, it should be easy for them to make a bunch of titanium bones and mass produce those killing machines. I'm guessing the ones in Tau Ceti were lost or detroyed, and perhaps Tycho didn't want pfhor scientists to let their bug-hands get his pet dirty in the timelines where the SO wasn't kidnapped by Durandal at the last moment.
