Degrees of awareness
Many units move on a shared biological drive; the Helminth and certain speaking entities display a different order of awareness. Treating all Infested as a single person is a mistake.

Techrot folds screens, cables, speakers and recordings into the body. Producing Coda from On-lyne data shows it can imitate cultural identity.
The Warframe connection
The Orokin used the Helminth to convert human bodies into specific combat forms. Warframes carry Infested ancestry but are not surrendered to the will of an ordinary outbreak.
