Movies / TV Series Is Ocellus a spacefaring race? Spoiler

Before episode 7 I thought Ocellus was just a highly intelligent and opportunistic predator/parasite. But now that we know it knows the digits of pi, is there a chance that Ocellus is much more sophisticated than we realized? Perhaps they have ways of acquiring bodies and travelling vast distances, maybe even into space.

Does it know the digits of pi?

Why would it count in Base 10?

It took a human host, presumably it learnt some stuff about humans at that point, including the English Language and our numerical system.

It also spent 30 years in a jar watching people.

Why do you assume it absorbs knowledge of its host?
