Why can't Zerg use Terran technology?

Why can't Zerg use Terran technology? They're intelligent enough to use technology. They have hive mind, Kerrigan, Terran-Zerg hybrids, etc.

Although it is never shown that Zerg use Terran technology, nothing speaks against them being ableto do it. At least their "leader" types are very intelligent and thus should be able to use Terran technology (at least if there are no genetic locks).

So, even though they should be able to use it, they wouldn't do it anyway as they don't need to use Terran technology. It wouldn't give them any advantage in doing so. They have their own ammunition, which they can reproduce themselves (acid, spines, etc.) while Terran ammunition is limited. They can fly in space by themselves. So, they have no need to use it.

Furthermore I'm talking here about PURE Zerg, not infested. With infested...they are able to use Terran technology and do so.

So all in all: The Zerg CAN use Terran technology (at least via infested Terrans) and even do so. But Pure Zerg won't use it because they have no need for it (they do quite well without it).
