Eh, I see the point you're making, but I don't think it makes any real difference to whether Adele and Topher were supremely fucked up people or not. If they had any interest in being ethical, if they actually cared about Priya as a person at all, they could have had the courage of their convictions and cured her, and then explained what they'd done and offered her the choice of being a doll to pay them back/thank them.

I should note that I did not say they thought "Hey, she's a schizophrenic! Let's rape her!" - they thought "she's a schizophrenic, it's okay if she gets raped / it's not actually rape" - or more to the point, didn't think of it terms of rape at all, until they discovered she wasn't a schizophrenic.

That they may have assumed consent in no way makes what they did any better. Assuming consent is still rape. And yes, it's a similar kind of wrong as the one they did Caroline, except that Caroline still had a choice (I'm not saying that makes it okay, just not as bad as Priya's case). She was not entirely powerless. She was not part of a group with a long history of being victimized by other people's ideas of "cures", either.
