Imagine if Ridley and Sigorney publicly saying they disliked AVP was actually a way of keeping us away from an intended plot line. Now I haven't lost my plot, but think about the possibility.
The engineer complex in Prometheus was actually destroyed by Predators. The piled up engineer scientists heaped after being culled; not skinned as it was an unsporting culling due to the engineers experimenting with biological weapons to kill them.
The rational being that the engineers are unable to match the predators ferocity, so they create the perfect organism to fight them. The facehuggers are slightly bigger in Covenant - right size for a predator. The engineer in Prometheus could have seen predator tech reverse engineered on Weyland or David so attacks.
An ancient war stumbled across by Weyland Yuyani; a weapon created for the predators alters itself for humans. Leading to AVP 3 in space done the right way. Or even a completely different expectation for Covenant.
Again I know very unrealistic....
