/!\ SPOILER /!\
What I found even MORE stupid was <Spoiler alert> how everyone hesitated to a fatal degree to do what had to be done.
It was made quite obvious that only Dr. Cheng and Lee Weathers (L-4 model) are the only one to know the full extent of the project.
Everyone else in the house is working on biorobotic project. And spending 5 years of your life (not counting the previous years spent on trying to bring the project to fruition) with this human like character will obviously create sentimental attachment.
Thus preventing anyone who's not privy about the real nature of the L-9 project to terminate the subject.
Would you shoot Laura Ingalls even though she bit the jugular out of a shrink ?
The body count was utterly stupid.
If it's stupid to you then you missed the point.
The body count is relevant to the focal point of the story, protect Synsect Tech
investment (The L-Series, weapon designed of genetically modified humans) and above all preserve the asset (Lee Weathers, L-4 model)
If Dr. Darren Finch delivered the lethal injection to Morgan like he was supposed to, no one would have died. Even more so, Lee is trying to prevent useless death by warning Ted to open the door and others to let her do her job.
Case in point with Skip, he's asked to stay by the car to not witness anything that would have him terminated. When Lee returns she tells him they need to leave. But his constant questioning leads to his ultimate demise.

Nice try, but the level of stupidity is hard to defend. Namely the Amy character who had possession of a gun, was allowed to leave IN an SUV and just sat there shaking for like fifteen minutes, then after witnessing Morgan kill multiple persons she follows her out onto the dock(now seemingly calm) to discuss how awesome the sky was. Then watches Morgan go to kill the potential last person left and just waits for her. Perhaps you will argue She was like a sister to her!After she saw the thing use others feelings for it to gain tactical advantage more than once I doubt she would be so trusting. Being rooted to the spot out of fear is real...but I don't think it remains for several minutes after the threat is gone and has given you keys to drive away.That is just my gut feeling as I have never seen a robot girl thing murder people before. And twice Idiots walked into the things romo apparently oblivious to the danger.Did Giamatti's character know she was a death-robot? For a group of Scientists and Doctors they were utter fools in almost every way.
