The internal structure of a Syn is more than just a part-organism, part-doll. The Seeds, located in various places, seem to hold the power to organically convert a Syn's body according to the needs of the collective, and her own aspirations (up to and including a 'brood mother' of sorts). We have gathered enough technical understanding and Syn cultural knowledge to help a Syn activate these Seeds. This opens up the possibility to improve our Syns, or at least help them to fit in better. Of course, these Seeds were never fully dormant: the effect of battle, epitomized by Condemnations, is evidence of this.
