I'll leave this to Bert, "He knows what he's doing" <VBG>

A couple of thoughts spring to mind here :

 1. The suits are made for an individual.
    ie. tuned for the users reaction times, size, strength, fighting style.
    Sylvie may be a buma, but you can't just slot in a 'Priss' disc !

 2. Lack of combat experience - watching out for Sylvie could be
    more hazzardous than Skyknight (in his current state).
    And before some says 'What about the DD ?'
      The DD was either up against civilians or in full
      'auto-battle' mode during the fight with the KS.
