Are they people also the way they are made with synthetic human parts not metal are they not human because they lack a "soul" or because they are not created the same?
Edit: You meet a synth in real life it's being hurt to a point where it's crying for help. Do you help it/she/he?

Fun fact if you kill an "innocent" synth, meaning a synth that has not attacked you or committed a crime, it is considered murder. i.word.com/idictionary/murder This is a definition of murder, obviously Bethesda considers the synths people.
