"Of course!", Mafyyil blurts out without thinking. Is this Barbarian trying to imply her enhancements were useless? How offensive!
While trying to decide whether to snap at Sulen or to enlighten them, however, she realizes she cannot name the exact purpose of the flowers either. She's only been told the surgery would make her a more complete being (She is! She's plant-woman now instead of only woman!) and help her fulfill her purpose fighting the hexarchate... She hadn't asked any technical questions.
However, while she knows perfectly well she should be disappointed she's not plant-animal-woman, she's simultaneously quite relieved she doesn't have to carry the weight of a kangaroo all the time. She also has no idea just why the surgeon-priests thought this would help her fulfilling her task - whatever that may be - and why their work was so obviously shoddy. She is ashamed of that thought.
Since it seems she's embarassingly just as ignorant as Sulen, she can't really blame them for asking. "You see, they make me a more complete person."
