I'm still fascinated by the creatures. What is their intelligence level? Does that depend on the host? Do they become separate beings when cut in half, because it appears both paths still function?

I agree. There are plenty of questions about the creature that are never fully explored. It's implied that each cell of the organism is independent of the other and will react to protect itself but it also appears to work in correlation and tandem with all the other cells when given the option. Trying to wrap my head around that concept is dizzying.
