They have no civilization to speak of, just kind roaming nomadic packs. They have no discernable language and do not seem to demonstrate higher intelligence...
Except, they are assumed to be something akin to a benevolent Mekboy, innate old-one programmed understanding of technology, even if besides that ability they are very animal like.
I think due to the above, I can accept the Inquisition being quite tolerant of them as they will never be a rival to any scale of Imperial civilization, and are in essence half pet half tool.

It sounds like, based on this, that banning them would be akin to banning thunderwolves, Salamanders, or those weird IG mounts...

Yeah, working with an alien race and building a relationship of trust and mutual respect would be a problem.
Holding a useful critter captive and exploiting it as much as you can is a light day of evil for the IoM.

From the Advance Order listing:
Mat Ward says:
Crowe's an unusual special character, with a sword he doesn't really use, and rules that empower his enemies, so why take him? Because he's a killing machine once in close combat, that's why. Essentially, Crowe combines all the best bits of Purifiers (Cleansing Flame) and Brotherhood Champions (the Perfect Warrior battle stances), making him a fantastic counter to both hordes and elites. In addition, Crowe's close combat attacks are rending on a roll of 4+. That'll put pretty much anything down.

As happy as I am to see the Jokaero returned to the game, including them in the Grey Knights Codex is a pretty sloppy, hair brained move.

Yes, the Jokaero is a Xeno and it is impossible to communicate with them. So naturally Ordo Xeno can field a complete Jokaero army to purge the universe from Xenos, the Codex doesn't feel the need to explain why 
BTW Reaper also has a nice Cyber Ape http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/Chronoscope/latest/50214 and there are always the Space gorillas from AT-43: Kharman.
BTW Mat Ward confirmed, and Crowe special character as well.

No, this reeks of Pete Haines or Alessio Cavatore.

I think they really need to sit down and make all the Codex's as a group. It might help siphon out some of the crap they spew.
