[Dragon Ball Z] Paragus said that saiyans that turns into a great ape loses all sense of itself. How come Vegeta can retain his senses when he transforms?

Vegeta is THE Saiyan Prince, the son of the leader of a warrior race the thrives on combat so it's no surprise that his bloodline represents the pinnacle of his people. Not only that, but as a future leader Vegeta would have been privy to the greatest trainers and techniques of his people which would have encompassed both physical and mental strategies from an early age. In short: Vegeta would have been brought up with a "Born to Rule" doctrine however this would have been backed up with both a training and conditioning regimen that gave him both the willpower and techniques he required to retain control while in his Great Ape form. And while not of the same continuity as Z, in GT Vegeta even explicitly states that it is his status as the Saiyan prince that allows him to retain control while in that form.
