We know during Riley and Angel's experience in the arena when the regular zombies got Datu, they did not express stereotypical flesh eater type zombie behavior. They showed enough self control to drag him (and others) away as a prisoner versus fast food. That displays intelligence beyond the general primal instincts a la Romero zombies.

I'm starting to get the feeling that Pinstripe is not doing the cosmetic alterations to the little ones either. The motor skills debate has really triggered a "not possible" switch in my brain that I hadn't considered before.
I does seem to be that Pinstripes is either capable of things in one instance and incapable in others.

As for Ink being a genius engineering zombies, I think is may be little more than exposing people or zombies to the haze in various ways. Skittles said that the normals do nothing but eat all of the time. Burt says that the smart ones tell the others what to do.

Unless the regular zombies can be turned into Inklings then the human population of L.A. may be virtually extinct. This is because there seems to be only 9 Inking in L.A. as opposed to the thousands in Boulder or Ft Irwin.
