Its alien not because we don't understand It, but because It is not protein life form. It have nothing common with humans, It does not feel hunger, does not need sex, does not feel love or pain. It is metal plastic and silicone. It is something completely nonhuman that can think and reason. It is the true horror, wont you see?

>We understand how it works how it thinks

Sort of partially. And also, it is false to assume in general. Long story short, main property of complex systems is the ability to pretend and mimic. You cannot properly study something that can pretend and mimic.

There is work done on how to even start interacting with an extraterrestrial civilization, and it would probably be a vast amount harder than whatever intelligence is contained in a human-data-filled, human-trained model. https://www.nasa.gov/connect/ebooks/archaeology_anthropology_and_interstellar_communication.html

That said, it is the closest we have to that so you're not 'wrong'.
