This plays into an earlier conversations/statements in other scenes. David was also experiencing the irony of being disassembled by his maker's maker. It was a powerful moment/scene. You knew it would rapidly go brutal but it was interesting how the violence erupted. The other cool thing about how David lost his head was as a redux of Ash losing his head in the original Alien.
