That's a super interesting theory; I like it! So the reptiloids aren't their original form!
my headcanon is that the faceless have been doing this a while. The disease came over them slowly so when scientists learned how to take over other beings they absorbed the nearest sentient species, the reptiloids. Maybe once youve turned human you cant go back to reptile form 1/2
