for an idea regarding "give borgs a reason to come back" and "give roboticists more things to do", have borgs collect points of "data" as they do things, after which they must return to robotics, as there is a storage limit and you would not obtain any further points while at max.
these points could allow researching specialized versions of modules that come with their own little gimmicks, new limbs that give abilities / extra tools (i.e. rubber piston arm that adds a harmless empowered shove tool, knocking victims ~3 tiles away) or just new upgrades (maybe lock stuff like heat / force shields and teleports behind this, for starters). maybe have researching cost points and then require a series of minigames to properly unlock?
that's my current idea on what roboticists could do, but perhaps just give them a side job other than taking care of cyborgs
