I was planning on having my Skitarii start to break programming and begin to gain sentience, at great risk to itself. Now I guess those risks have gone significantly larger now that there's a lot of other Tech-adepts who just got on board. In the words of Malcolm Reynolds "It's getting mighty crowded in my sky."

Even then, tech priests like Dirka who care more about science than worship would see it more as a learning opportunity. There adepts, such as the character from the Horus heresy series Correl Zeth, make everything about learning as much as possible. They see the cruel process of turning one to a servitor, or a heavily restricted Skitarii, as something for criminals and traitors only.

But Skitarii do have sentience. Well most of them do. Their servitors certainly don’t. Maybe your character is just more willing to engage in tech heresy.

In most cases yes, but There have been the occasional adept that has put heavy restrictions on them to where they are not much better than servitors in many cases.
