I think that minimizing the amount of death required for a lifeform to exist is a good choice and not one really available to xenomorphs, who, due to their ecological niche, are required to kill sapient individuals to propagate their species and in a way which, again (refer to spoiler tag above).
They're not normal predator animals, they're fictional monsters designed to be as violating and horrible as possible
I view it more as neoliberal ideology, where in the original it felt more clear that the violence was a product of the system and living under capitalism and working for corporations, Aliens centers the Xenomorphs as the primary source of evil that needs to be exterminated. It's been a minute since I've seen them, so I could be way off base. Still, I think this represents a big ideological shift.
