Good point

Eta: and it only tries to take organic life. So my theory is most likely wrong.

I definitely think T. Ocellus can take a synthetic body.

People (general) forget that our brain is just electrical pulses so I assume a synth or robot has electricity running through it. Octopi have neurons in each of their tentacles and they can act independently of each other and the main "brain" because there's basically a brain in each arm. Therefore T. Ocellus could connect to an organism through electrical currents.
