The English translation changed quite a bit.
In fact, compared to the original, the english is severely lacking.
Oh, if you think you can just take an original English PS 2 save state and rename it to work with Naflign's translation, well you think wrong.
When you import the save state, the whole game takes on the text of the original rom. You lose the new translation as a result.
I think this is the closest to a complete version of naflign's script.

If you read it and compare to english PS 2, you'll see drastic changes.
In fact, Catfangs and such were STUDIED as weapons. Let me quote:
NeiFirst- I am Neifirst. I was born 2 years ago when humans combined human cells and animal cells together using the bio-system. As a result, a power surge occurred, creating me. My creators attempted to kill me since I was a failed experiment. However, I escaped, stole DNA samples from the bio-system, and created the bio-monsters. I shall now seek revenge against you foolish humans who tore up nature, and created much grief for us. However, there was another Nei who attempted to stop me.
Nei- No, that's not true! I split from you because I couldn't stand what you did! Seeking vengeance on humans using monsters is just about as horrible as your creators! I can't let you do this!
Bingo. Neifirst was a failed experiment. She had a mind of her own. She stole the samples meaning she stole CATFANG samples. She stole HEADROT Samples. A burst of energy would evolve a Catfang probably.
Right there Nei awknowledges their creators as trying to make weapons to kill humans. Who do we know who wanted Algolians killed? The Earthmen!
This in turn backs up the the compendium statements. It also backs up the compendium stating that the Earthmen created the Biomonsters and Nei-first.
Now for even more proof Neitypes were studied in PS 2..
SEED: That's right. She is a product of a thousand years of improvement on genetic information from a prototype prior to the 'Great Collapse.' I have also given her a basic education. She will surely be a great help to you.
Prior to the Great Collapse could mean the time Nei-First was created and escaped or earlier.
It's called putting facts together. The only way SEED would even have genetic material on Nei, enough to clone her, was if she had been studied.
Japanese PS 2 and PS IV prove that Nei was studied extensively.
Not seeing this is just pure denial. Jap PS 2 and 4 back up the compendium stating Neitypes were studied.
You even have the Memorial Drama CD which doesn't break continuity.
GENE in the memorial drama CD carried on the work of the Earthmen.
if you want a REAL MIND SCREW, read what the original Earthmen say. That right there is proof a Dark Force made it to Earth.
If you want something else, Earthmen sent the power surge in PS 2 and caused the biomonsters and Zio in PS IV did the exact same thing. Could Zio have been a sleeping Earthman who woke up? We know Dark Force just loves the Earthmen He does have their armor. The Earthmen blew up Algo, Zio wanted to destroy Mota. The two planets that switched alignments..
He's another amusing fact. According to japanese PS 2, DARUM is the one who tried to kill Nei and Rolf rescued her
