They're walking corpses, they aren't even considered to be truly alive. Before the High-Ends they literally didn't have the brain capacity to think for themselves. It wouldn't be wrong to call those Nomu biological robots with primitive AI. High-Ends are more iffy since they can clearly speak and think.is the reason heroes are allowed to kill nomu's is because they aren't human?
But only Kurogiri has shown to have a will beyond just obeying his master, and we have no idea how long he can do that for. Endeavor did instantly go for a kill on a Nomu, and we didn't know they were corpses back then. But it was still very clear these things were completely mindless. I believe killing the Nomu is a mercy for them, considering how badly their bodies and brains were destroyed through surgery and holding multiple Quirks.
I wonder if Eri's Quirk would work on a Nomu? Are they considered a living thing by her Quirk? Since her Quirk only affects living things. It'd be interesting if they tried to use Eri's Quirk on Kurogiri and she can't rewind him back to Shirakumo because he's already "dead".
