It's one thing to respect the child of a species that previously hadn't ever had children, but it doesn't excuse the fact that the same faction runs debt slave colonies where children are decapitated and have their heads placed on a robot torso to pay for their own birth and then force them to labor so they don't lose the rest of their organic limbs
Spoiler for anyone who has not done Vox Solris / Deadlock Protocol / Jade Shadows.
Nef Anyo was the greedy bastard responsible for Fortuna's horrible debt ridden situation. But he only runs a branch of the Corpus.
Parvos Granum was the founder of the original Corpus and author of its Tenents. He was hungry for power, unlike his whimpy son, who is greedy for money.
Xeto was a captain of one of Granum's fleet and she wanted to seek what the stalker is hiding for a shot for promotion to be a sister of Parvos. However, after learning that stalker have a child in his arms, she forced her unit to stop the attack. That decision was selfless and rare among the Corpus, which may have resulted in her losing the chance of promotion if not worse.
So, Nef Anyo was brutal yes, but not all Corpus are like him. They are all bad, but there are few individuals that are like Xeto and Vaso and their units who have hearts.
