This is not really related to the Endless at all, but I don't think this can fully explain Omega.
We know Omega was something they created much later, after the Omicrons became machine-like, after many prototypes- not a being of flesh that was turned into a robot, but a completely new mechanical being created to evolve and deal a decisive blow against the dragons during their war with the dragonstar, if the Stigma Dreamscape lore is to be believed.
Omega just somehow, during its travels and battles (or maybe because of it?) gained some semblance of a soul. Might have to do with the fact it needed to analyze life or simulate it- it's never made clear.
It'd actually be interesting to know what happened to Omega. And, I guess, to Alpha, which wasn't a fully physical entity either (originally couldn't exist outside of the Interdimensional Rift).
Not really helpful to the discussion people are having here, but interesting to consider in the grand scheme of things.
