Yeah, the Operator's Magitek is basically just an Engineer Automaton that modifies your own stats, and gives you a pool of temp HP.
The Standard Magitek are built like constructs, with set HP and stats, armor, a lot of equipment can be swapped out... but on the topic of Sword Techs: After giving it some thought, I don't believe either for of Magitek would support it.
They are (Su) abilities, meaning they rely on something only you can do, not strictly a technique. While you could have the Magitek mimic the movements it can't call on the Mako Infusions you have to pull off the effects that make a Sword Tech what it is.
Neural Link wouldn't fix this, all that does is make the machine more responsive to your commands, it doesn't fix a lack of flow for Mako energy from you to its weapons.
