Why does it have to be integrated?

Especially a power steering pump; which has to have characteristics
to match other power steering elements in the car?

The power steering and alternator in my company car are
"integrated"; it's electrical steering assistance with a huge
(120A IIRC) alternator. That's obviously to keep the battery charged
as the diesel injectors appear to draw quite a lot of current.
