A sudden horrible thought has occured to me:

Penny is the first synthetic with an aura (soul) and consequently, one presumes, a semblance. We also know, from today's episode, that the Atlesians have learned how to transfer aura from one person to another. What if Penny doesn't have a synthetic aura but rather the aura taken from some donor. What if said donor was unwilling (a prisoner being executed)?
