Actually, as far as I've read-
A tardigrades survivability
has nothing much to do
with their size, amazing
creatures. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tardigrade
They are amazing creatures, but if you read about how they survive in space it doesn't say "indefinitely", and it points out they're not extremophiles because they can't
thrive in those conditions, only endure. They tested tardigrades who were already in "survival mode", and those in a normal condition -- only 68% of the "survival mode" tardigrades could be revived, and subsequent mortality rates were high. The regular group fared worse.
So they can
endure it, but they'll still die in space faster than in ideal conditions.

The Queen is clearly heard breathing in aliens.
And all the Aliens in
Resurrection are breathing. I know the argument would be that "it's the genetic crossing", but since the regular
Aliens Queen was also breathing, it's clearly not a contamination.
Also the original Alien yawns, which is a product of a respiratory system.
