The way I see it is STEM could only take full control of the host's mind if the mind "breaks". The other hosts seemed to enjoy it or half-participate with STEM, more like a partnership. They also seemed to listen to STEM through an ear piece, so they may have had robotic implants, but it wasn't a full mind chip.
The controls were built in because it was both STEM and Computer Guy building it together. Computer Guy put the controls in, and STEM already had a plan to overcome this obstacle. I don't think STEM wanted to give his full hand away.
