yep, same here except i think power-source makes a slight difference to the degree of cyborginess. maybe we need a scale. maybe something like:

caveman with tools, self-powered
ancient person using naturalistic propulsion methods (wind, animals) for vehicles (ships, chariots) etc
engine (steam, electric, gas) powered entities (vehicles, factories, aircraft)
direct nervous system integration for thought-based control
shared consciousness

I feel a cyborg needs to be a single self contained entity and 3 sounds like just vehicles.
