 * SPOILER ALERT*

Umbra frames are self-sentient and completely autonomous of the operator, being organisms that don't need be remotely controlled. The Stalker is one such example of this occuring, a rouge frame with the sole purpose to kill the operators. Another is from the end of the Second Dream where your frame shows signs of it being able to operate on its own.

Seeing that Umbra frames are autonomous, The "Sacrifice" will be in fact the operator. Umbra frames are powerful versions of the originals, and because of that are nearly impossible to control via transferance. The quest will be concerned with the operator and Lotus finding one of these frames, booting it up, and realizing the monster they've unleashed. Taking control of Umbra you've made, you will be forced to make a choice, destroy the frame or sacrifice the oberator and allow your frame to take back its free will.

But if the operator is dead, how will we utilize the new focus system? Easy, Umbra frames are so dam powerful and have so many buffs they won't need the focus system anymore. Of course this means systems tied to focus will be off limits, another sacrifice made for the ultimate endgame content and fashionframe.

TL;DR Umbra frames kill/disable the operator for the benefit of their power.
