According to the grimiore, Psions are not related to the large cabal in any way. the Cabal are huge as we all know(800-3000 pounds) so they would have no chance in competing against a hunter or warlock in terms of agility and striking speed.
So, why not create a small nimble weapon to counter a faster threat? Why not include some of the abilities that thoes nimble treats use such as Blades edge and warlock melee?
im not saying titans are slow(physically at least).

Psions are a previously conquered race that was enslaved by the cabal.
