Yeah I personally never believed Zagara intended for infested terrans for diplomacy. Furthermore I can see your point of Stukov and other infested terrans going off on their own. Until proven otherwise, Zagara would keep her promise to Kerrigan prior to her departure. If that's true, then it means all infested terrans are considered relics of the past, a reminder of what happened when the swarm was still at war with the terrans, and such relics are certainly not wanted by the terrans. Thus if you want to say that these relics are best forgotten or left behind or something, then I can see Stukov wouldn't have a place in either faction.
