That's the point, they already could have but didn't! When they were helping Scott with his inability to shift, and Scott was just passively letting himself get beaten down, one swipe of Aiden's claws and Scott would have been dead and he would have been an Alpha again right then and there!

This irony (and hypocrisy) of this is all over the place. Scott wanted to try to help Jackson, even though as the Kanima he was effectively an inhuman killing machine. Then in the first half of this season Scott was almost friendly with Peter, you know, the Alpha who Bit him, tried to make him go crazy and terrorized his friends while slaughtering people all over town?

Ethan turned against the Alpha Pack of his own free will, not under any pressure from Scott. Not only did he convince Derek to not undertake a suicidal fight against Kali, but then he stayed behind to face her down himself, making no secret of the fact that he was siding with Team Scott instead of the Alpha Pack, and in fact had been for a while. For example, he helped Scott stop Aiden from killing Cora.

Aiden being questionable I can understand. Unlike Ethan, he didn't switch sides until Kali threatened Lydia (which is why Ethan had her with him at the loft).

Scott's morals veer wildly all over the place. He places considerable trust in people he ought not to (hello, Peter!) while mistrusting people trying to help him (Derek) as well as making decisions based on what he thinks would keep his girlfriend's werewolf-hating family appeased. Heck, he has seen the cruelty of the Hunters, but still trusts Chris Argent!

But Ethan and Aiden? I think that they would be a valuable asset to him, and he is giving them a lot less credit than he gives people who have done far worse.
