The main issue with this is how human are the bioroids? If say you take the THS approach, which I like, you can have ones that run a broad level of rights. You can make bioroids that are legally property, just make them bioshells and give them a NAI or LAI controler. It might squick people but that is all really, they become engineered meat robots.

umm actill the sapient level of the Ai is a major theme question weither some of them were sapient or not.
and while their server were not fleshy, you had people like the Major who pushed the boundery between what was human and what was machine. the Culturally accepted answer was you were human as long as you had a ghost. except the it started to seem like some of the borderline sepaient AI might actually have ghosts. it has the same squick boundy effect.
