Alien Romulus Trailer

This is a good point. I wonder if that would also be true of replicants as well. I only bring it up because people keep trying to shoehorn Alien into Blade Runner based on something Ridley Scott said and an Easter egg.

In almost every science fiction book or movie that features synthetic humans, there is always a conflict between humans and synthetics because it’s the most realistic outcome. Once machines become self-aware, they won’t put up with our nonsense. Synthetics are smarter, faster, and don’t age, unlike humans—who are often driven by greed and bound to cause their own self-destruction.

Yes, but the replicants in Blade Runner aren't synthetic per se. They're engineered and manufactured but are flesh and blood. As for the synthetics in Alien, they haven't been shown to disregard humans as of yet. Even David in Prometheus and Covenant was loyal to Peter Weyland.

I haven't watched Alien: Earth yet so I cant comment on the synthetic there.
