I find it hard to believe that people don't get this.

The Kanima is a result of a werewolf transformation gone wrong. That has nothing to do with Derek's alpha form. It was a production choice, partly to save on CGI costs but mostly to keep Derek's character relateable.

The contra of this is that they made the Season One Alpha a CGI monster both to dehumanize it and to keep Peter's identity a secret.

It has nothing to do with how he feels.
