You are talking like as though Shumi are shapeshifters which can become anything.
The line clearly spoke they become bad or good things depending whether they hearts are defilled or pure. Just like how Elder become Elder and NORG being an outcast.
It is not like Shumi think he is Laguna then he evolve into Laguna. This is absurd.
Did anywhere in the game tell you one of the form they evolve is human?
And I have some explainations of my own why Shumi can't become humans.
First, If Shumi become human, then the human he became will go interact with other humans and everyone will know about these Demi-humans. But no one or isn't anywhere in the game mention about Demi-humans nor do the Shumi themselves mentioned.
Second, If they can became humans, why are they isolating themselves from the other humans since humans are basically what they will become.
Third,

Shumis change as they grow, depending on their environment. They are peaceful, and only allow merchants into their home
Why do they allow only merchants and not tourists and other visitors, since who knows one of the humans is what they evolved to and come back for a visit.
