Never thought of that... good point!

The VD does have some strange influence over machines and technology. That influence is seen as some personality? display of the machine, that is interpreted by the Adeptus Mechanicus as the influence of some machine god|spirit. Whether the VD can actually control machines directly, such as titans, is uncertain. For all we know that influence might not be from the VD itself, but from the prison it is held in, which could generate some sort of field.

Another good point was that the C`tan have different personalities. While one might choose to flee, another might be enraged enought to stay and cause damage. It also unknown what the state of the VD would be, should it escape. What if it starts eating our sun? The C`tan were originally some gas|energy life forms. Should it return to that state, can anything harm it?
