If the Shadows had the "ship control pods", why did they need "fresh
bodies for the central processing units of their ships" as Justin said
in "Z'ha'dum??????

Inquiring minds want to know.

The control pods mainly work via remote control, their functionality (as Lyta
noted) is limited.  For the shadow vessels, you need a fast reaction,
independent-thinking cpu of a higher order...also because a shadow vessel is a
hell of a lot more advanced and complex than a Centauri cruiser.
