There's nothing fundamentally special about 'people' or 'flesh and blood'. Someone can be uploaded and run in silicon and still be as much a person as another person who happens to run on organic hardware.
That said, DLC at the moment isn't nearly as complex or chaotic as flesh and blood creatures are, and certainly isn't yet self aware. Personally, I think that's a lot of the draw of games in general: they aren't nearly as difficult to figure out and/or work with as real people, and the consequences for failure aren't nearly as harsh. I can hardly fault others for wanting to go with the safer option.
