@@Ragitsu when they evolved into humanoid form the Asurans may well have staged a civil rights campaign proclaiming their sentience in the tradition of The Matrix and reimagined Battlestar Galactica. Remember all we're told by the Asurans themselves is that they begged the Lanteans to modify their programming to eliminate their perpetual aggressive drive (according to my theory, presumably so they could integrate into Lantean society as equals), and the Lanteans refused to do so. Afterwards the Lanteans said "You aren't the weapon against the Wraith we were hoping for" and tried to commit genocide against the artificial intelligence they'd created. That would certainly explain why ten thousand years later the Asurans were still holding a grudge and decided to trash Atlantis as payback. Also why Oberoth is saying "If those guys had just listened to us we would have killed off their Wraith problem and we'd all be one happy family now."

RDA and Robert Picardo already had star power before being brought in the franchise (Not withstanding both are good actors).

The wraith cloning world was not known to the ancients, who at the start of the war went deep into wraith territory do to being so superior. However once the cloning factory was up and running and im assuming a cloning shipyard to grow hive ships it was over. the wraith just threw fleet after fleet in a continues assault against every known ancient stronghold meaning the ancients couldnt really move their fleet out for an offensive. And the ancients didnt care that muchabout the humans...after all the war ends with the ancients going "well humans, your fucked. Were just going to bugger off now to earth, have fun dying"

Evasive answer, could mean anything, it is just meant to convey that there are many. You can count any number larger than 1 million in the millions, though commonly it is used to refer to anything between 1 million and 999 million. Truth be told we don't know if there are billions of Asurans. They might just like to have a lot of available space so they built out instead of repurposing space. If you have essentially unlimited resources and orders of magnitude more space than you need and distance is no matter, then you might just build a new area of city when you need different configurations of rooms rather than remodel or tear down old areas. Given that they like to emulate the Ancients it makes sense that they limited their numbers to only what they needed, the Ancients were not known to grow into large numbers either.

One thing I never thought about until now. But they had programming during this point in time that made it impossible for them to harm the ancients(probably due to DNA), John had an unmanipulated genetic code - which would mean they shouldn’t have been able to harm him or disobey him correct? Obviously it’s a TV show and it wouldn’t have been much fun if John was able to command them from the gate, but hypothetically speaking. Because even though he’s a descendant, he still carries the gene regardless. Descendants, not different species.
