It seems to me to be a way for an Inventor who chose armor or a weapon to Also get a minion. You can't have more than one.

Ah I missed that. There's always that one sentence off somewhere you aren't reading at the moment.
But it does seem all the class feats that boost a construct companion can be taken even if that isn't your innovation. Unless there's another hidden sentence somewhere I've missed....
The difference is in whether your construct gets your innovation-specific boosts. If I pick Construct, Overdrive and Offensive Boost work on them, so I can just hang back safely. If I have armor or weapon, I can basically get the unboosted "animal companion" version.
