It is heavily implied that there is more to the surrogate inside the frame. They are living organisms, which Ballas refers to as "animals", "tamed" by the Tenno. That means they do have a mind of their own (sort of).

They can die, and i don't find it weird at all for a Tenno to get attached to them after having been linked to them over and over again.
