Because we are dealing with a multicellular animal. Much easier to
control than current microbes. Also, the octopus is a marine
animal. Despite its escape artist skills, it will be much easier to
control such an organism, which is less likely to, say, escape to
the oceans from my apartment than, say, an uplifted rabbit or dog.
