Aptitude, gained skills and expertise are what is "reset" in a Skeleton. Armour King helps us understand this. Skeletons lacking AI cores are frames with open-ended CPUs. They can be reprogrammed into, for instance, capable bodyguards. Soldierbots were useful in that way - they could be custom fit to the job need.
Units with AI Cores are different. Their memories do not get reset. Their inner personalities are upstream from their frame's capabilities. When they reset, they're basically emptying their harddrive of software, its saved states, various caches, etc. They do not forget who they are. They do not forget the past. They know exactly when this began and how far things have fallen. That's why most have self-terminated and you see dramatically more drones than you do sentient Skeletons. Most couldn't take it.

There is a lot of untapped potential in the trade war occurring between the TG & West. I've been exploring the opposite end of the affair through which the empire captures the river valley and proceeds to escalate the conflict with their commercial rivals.
I'll posit the following:
>1. The Traders Guild is only using the convenience of the Western Hive's willingness to freely trade their cheap goods due to the (multitude of) ongoing imperial crises. If and when the empire seizes the Okranite riverlands they will rapidly shed the need for the West's utility and just as quickly will desire to see their exit from the logistics network. As much is already expressed by the literature spread across the empire.
>2. The West is operating in a peculiar adaptive behavioral mode it has come to by the nature of its internal structure and those resultant capabilities (see the lack of a "King"). That intuition of "they never think about it" drives at the heart of the matter. This Hive is following a found strategy which seemingly works but isn't battle-tested so to speak. Pressure from the empire could cause the West to buckle and utterly fold. How the currently passive South reacts (if they do) to this series of events would lead to quite a lot of chaos in the southern imperial territories. We know the death of the Southern Queen *will* induce a widespread invasion from the Southerners into the swamplands and beyond.
The West has made a major enemy out of the Guild (and natural enemy of the Okranites by their mere existence). I think the Guild would go all the way with things and not play on isolation. They're ready to kill Esata. Why not the other Queens... once they find them and the stars align, who knows.
