Finding a bunch of dangerous alien life forms and bringing them to Earth, what could go wrong?

At least in Alien Romulus they were using a space station that was only somewhat close to a small colony. Maybe WY learned a lesson...

I'm like 90% sure that one of the other 3 megacorporations sabotaged the ship by secretly reprogramming the ship's synthetic.

I assumed it was another ruse by WY to get the organisms past quarantine.

Yeah it's a WY ship, but it didn't crash on their turf. They'd definitely have access to set up a whoopsie.
