I'd say it looks more like traditional creators' anxiety about their creations. Like when humans create robots, who eventually take control or at least take such important part in human's lives that they feel it's wrong to let it be this way, as if robots go wrong, humans will be in jeopardy.

In case of Orokin, perhaps their "re"-creation of Tenno was a bit too successful, and whether Orokin decided that Tenno were too "sentient", or Tenno themselves thought it's better to separate sooner than later, they eventually clashed. What role did Lotus play and does now play is harder to figure. Was she originally on Tenno's side, or she is in fact a descendant of Orokin AI, which attempts to control Tenno after long past defeat.

Another thing I'd like to mention - is about the theory of why can Tenno be so "adaptive" of warframes. To this I'd like to say that US, as players, have no reflection on the story. Like, it's not RPG. You do not create one specific "Avatar", which does quests, progresses in a story, saves the world, wears different armor. We simply are the players, the "controllers" with nickname, who control different warframes. So we start as an Excalibur, and lead him from cryosleep to glory. Then, already working for Lotus, we assemble parts of other Warframes, like Trinity, and build it. But it is not the Excalibur-Tenno who is Trinity, but simply another Tenno, possibly one of countless Rescue\Defense targets, who dons the Warframe and is controlled by us.

For all I know, Tenno are biological, they are inside of the suits. They get downed, they bleed out, they can be damaged by poison. Warframes are not drones, nor proxies. To which extent are warframes controlled by Tenno(like Mechas, or more like android implant\tissue-merging with armor) - I don't know, haven't played Dark Sector or bothered with lore. But that much seems clear, and I hope that devs will bring a lot more lore into the game, specifically into the past period.
