Like I said, you ever been to an agility dog show? High-level obedience trials? Seen what a smart dog can do? It's pretty amazing to watch. But in no way does it make dogs as bright as people. Sure, a bulldog can use a skateboard, but it can't fly an FTL spaceship, put on a shiftsuit, and then go hunting armed humans or hard meat xenomorphs, much less breed the latter to train young warriors.
I don't believe the xenomorph drones are as smart as the Yautja, nor humans, and if you want to believe that, that's fine, we'll just disagree. I think the preponderance of evidence is on my side of the table.
