While it makes for good fiction writing, it doesn't make for good fact.  most any alien civilization that doesn't immediately destroy us, and that thinks to come all the way to Earth for science and exploration, is going to have the attitude "Don't be such snowflakes - yeah, we're here, we're not going to harm you, just deal with it".
lol... you keep trying to put human thoughts in the minds of aliens, it doesn't work that way, it's fun to speculate but no one knows what their motivations are..

But if it makes you happy, I always thought that the prime directive was ****, you only have to look at human history, when the Spanish discovered the new world, screw the prime directive, we want the gold.. lol.. aliens could be nice but I don't think so..
