Passives shouldn't be augments but a specific mechanic to make a frame more unique, we have mods for augmentation, passives should do stuff, like Chroma's passive, that can affect the style in how you usually play warframe depending on what frame you are using.

TL;DR - Passives should be like the abilities of a warframe, an aspect that makes their gameplay different from other frames while still adding something useful to gameplay.
