I don't think it's a question of development, in the analog-to-biological-maturation sense. I think she just hasn't figured out what they're for yet. She's learned how to operate most of the newfangled systems she acquired when she upgraded to Revision 2, but for all we know those winglets are actually just passive cooling vanes, and as such have been doing their job all along.

She's probably not all that keen on it, actually. I mean, last time she did that she went completely haywire and had to be damped with an EMP weapon (which is a little like skipping straight from "sober" to "hung over in a jail cell with no memory of getting there"), then spent the better part of a year painstakingly learning how to re-activate and control each system.

She isn't, she has, and it does, but only in human mode.
