It's sci fi, it's something to make her original character more interesting. Guess what, it worked.
Anyway, Psylocke's original body is dead. When Psylocke was killed by Vargas and brought back by Jamie, they had a chance to restore her original body. But that's simply not who she is anymore. Frankly I could care less if she got her original body back or not, as long as she retains her persona and the whole psychic ninja assassin style and trademark costume.
Speaking of Psylocke's trademark costume, it will ALWAYS be the blue halter top leotard and red sash. They have tried time and again to give her a new look, but its just comes off as either boring, unoriginal, or both. I applaud the costume designer and team for X-MEN Apocalypse for their choice to go with something in line the classic costume and Munn looks damn good wearing it (now their work on Apocalypse himself... thats another story).
