Fallen Dregs teased in school, called "two arms" by bullies

Bungie could easily get away with anything using the excuse 'they're aliens!' ..but I'm curious why the Fallen Dregs only have two arms.

They do appear to have some sort of tubes where the extra pair of arms should attach. I almost wonder, with the way nobility factors in to the Fallen race, if maybe Dregs had their arms removed.

It could be voluntary--join a House, give up your extra arms as a sign of servitude.

Or maybe there's distinct social classes and anyone that isn't of a particular "bloodline" gets their extra arms removed at birth to 'keep them in their place'.

Of course, some Fallen could just be born with two arms while others are born with four, but it doesn't really make sense, especially given that only the lowest rank of Fallen have two.

Also, it looks like the Dreg's horns have been either removed or haven't yet grown to their full size. It has some kind of protuberance on its back as well. The different classes certainly appear to be the same species though.
