Why cant your do it to Archons? What 50 foot tall Giant protoss balls of light are not biological?
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

No stupid excuses, it's quite simple really -

Broodling works on any non-robotic ground units. Reason: The Broodlings take control of their "hosts", and in the tank's case, the tank's driver, and therefore they kill it
A reaver, a robotic unit, has no mind and so it can't be taken control of by a parasite, see?

There are 4 robotics units in the game: Observer, Shuttle, Probe and Reaver
Since Observer and Shuttle aren't ground units it's obvious you can't broodling these.

Probe and Reaver are *supposingly* the only two ground units you can't broodling - but there are another 2 - the Archon and the Dark Archon - I guess, in a way, they're a special entity, they don't count as anything, they're not organic (irradiate or maelstrom wont effect them) nor mechanic (lockdown wont either) and they're half-flyers so they don't even set off mines..

Anyway, those are the only 4 ground units that you can't broodling
