I am trying to understand it, and I am giving this movie allot of slack as it is a Alien movie, and I do like it. I just do not like this part of it, I think that could have been handled more elegantly.
I guess so, there are a few things that they could have done.

I think what they were trying to do was make it work as a standalone. When you look at each of the Alien films, they're so vastly different - the only consistent cast member is Ripley (and to a much lesser extent, Bishop) - that anybody can watch them quite easily without having to have watched earlier films. I'd much prefer them to link films better, but opening it up to all audiences might have been their intent.
