Indeed! Don't want to be associated with Cerberus? Then feel free to give up the perks and shlep around the galaxy on your own dime! Oh, and feel free to turn yourself in to the Alliance. Remember, that nice Major said that, if you cooperate, you should only need to be detained for about seven months!

It's hard to distance yourself from a group while simultaneously (and very visibly) enjoying the perks of a close association with the very same group! :P
