I think White Blood Cell was originally conceived to represent the cellular immune system in general, whose job is basically to protect the body. Plus, the author was trying to establish a touching moment with Cancer Cell, and could you really see Killer T having that conversation with his established personality?
It's more for narrative purposes than it is for accuracy, I think.
