One theory out there is that this is Ridley Scott's way of flipping his middle finger to the studios from James Cameron's Aleins onward and is going a completely different direction. One possible Easter egg, and it would MAMMOTH is that the "space jokey" in the original Alien is not an Engineer and instead David, Tennessee, or even Daniels inside Engineer space suit.

In Prometheus the crew sets out to discover the ancient astronauts that had visited Earth in the past and created humanity. There is no clear explanation as to why the Convenient crew and the 2k colonists in cyrosleep left Earth. David tells Walter that the human race is dying, presumably having to leave Earth due to the planet dying and that humans don't deserve to start over. David is angry with humanity for creating him and his kind to be their servants. Discovering the Engineers bio weapon was his chance to wipe out humans and play god himself.
AI is the real antagonist here, not the aliens as they are just a means to an end.
