"The 'Synthetic vs. Organics' conflict superseding all others goes against the cohesion of the narrative's themes. Instead of being about unity and alliances, it dissolved into an 'us vs. them' scenario."

I'm still puzzled as to why people insist that the reason the Reapers were created is meant to be the big conflict of the series, let alone one at all.
