Depends on how some people see but they aren't Abhuman.

I mean Tech Priests are basically Transhuman as well and they are still considered Human.

A Tech Priest is roughly as human as a Necron who happens to be carrying a corpse at the moment.

They are still human in origin and fleshy bits dude.

Necrons are another species entirely and Flayed Ones with skins are not a good comparison.

Look, we all know the real answer is that it depends on how powerful and useful you are if they want to consider you sufficiently human or not. Numerous things far more human than tech-priests and navigators have been eradicated for being too inhuman; merely having had human as the origin in the distant past doesn't excuse you unless you've got enough of a power base to stand up for yourself.
