This is an interesting discussion that mirrors my thinking as well. I would expect that a civilization millions of years ahead of ours would have figured a way to construct biological appendages as needed for the tasks at hand. Our somewhat limited understanding of the biological processes is advancing at a rapid rate and one day it will be standard procedure to regrow any injured organs as required.
On the other hand, it might be more convenient to develop mechanical components to assist our future selves since the power to weight ratio can be much higher than evolution has generated thus far. Let's just hope that it is not typical for an advanced civilization to end itself with super weapons once it reaches a certain point in its development!
