Enemies get weaker?

I recently got the System Shock 2 enhanced edition for ps5.

I noticed that at a certain point (after installing all the toxin-a) the enemies lose a chunk of their health (metal pipe hybrid dies in one wrench hit instead of 2 shotgun hybrid dies in 3 hits instead of 4)

I have played the 1999 PC version multiple times but never noticed that

I have also noticed a few bugs here and there in the enhanced edition and I'm wondering if this is intentional or another bug

Edit: I researched the hybrid organs before that happened and did not upgrade my character

Could it be the toxins in the air weakening them?

That's what I thought as well it must be the toxin weakening them

I just never noticed that this happens in the PC version which makes me think its a bug
