Picard has had, more or less, a whole body transplant, as was alluded to in the dialogue this week.
Remember we had 7 complete seasons to learn exactly what Soong had achieved with Data, Lore and Juliana, and that was achieved through multiple episodes devoted to the topic. We’re never going to get quite that level of in-universe exposition in Picard.
