So the more I watch Andromeda Ascendant and get reminded of it - the more I believe Rommie is not completely emotionless.
She's programmed with emotion, yes, but she's also AI so she actually knows a bit when to use it and such.
And can love, get attached (there's a scene she's upset they're selling some china lol), etc.

Data will be jealous.
However, she argues that it is a programming aspect that she has. So personally I don't think she sees it as anything other than that. Just like a ship is built with point defense, doesn't mean anything. She looks human but it's all for the purpose of the crew.

But in a lot of ways she is logical. And emotion is something that shouldn't be as controlling or rule her (in her opinion - something I think the ship AI and Android 'discuss'. Haven't run across that. Probably in an upcoming episode - maybe even Starcrossed (the episode Rommie falls in love).

Anyway - this was a quote from "Starcrossed" that made me think of it:
