I don’t understand your point?

Do you want a scene of humans on Earth protesting against Pandora’s colonisation?

Cameron has said Earth will play a bigger role in future movies, so I’m sure they’ll show how humans are suffering too (outside of that extended cut).

But right now this movie is in Pandora and from the perspective of the colonised. It’d be super weird to force a scene like that in.

Like, it’s wild to expect colonized people to have a “nuanced” view on the issue and say “not all sky people are bad” while they’re actively being colonized.

Like, right now all the Navi was separated into different tribes, each fighting their own battles. A major point of the series is how all the Navi need to set aside their differences and unite to face the much, much greater threat.

That's your local group. The setting is very explicitly horror. The fact that most people who escaped Earth are from the global north is a critique of how global north nations are refusing to address or actively exploiting global warming. Neotenics are considered creepy in-universe by some people because what kind of person would want to run around in a body that looks like a pre-pubescent child? But the potential for horror is very much the point. Eclipse Phase is an extremely, extremely dark setting that explores both the risks and benefits of how leftist societies might deal with radical transhumanism and potential new technologies, alongside the unrelenting, gut churning horror of how capitalist societies would invent new forms of exploitation and violence using those same technologies. People creeping on Neotenics is... pretty far down the list of routine horrors faced by Firewall agents. Eclipse Phase frequently makes "I have no Mouth and I must Scream" look cheerful and optimistic.

As for why Neotenics are in the setting at all - Neotenics were built because a smaller body means you need less food, less air, and less pressurized volume in a space ship. It's a highly efficient way to still wear a meat body while min-maxing your available resources in space. People who are more comfortable operating in synths/robots or as infomorphs would skip having a biological body all together and go full digital, but many, many people are not willing to live like that just for more fuel and energy efficiency. Neotenics were built as a compromise solution.
