The EC resolves many doubts we had previously:

The fleets don't starve to death, they just leave sol system before the mass relay explodes. We know why Joker leave the battle. The Normandy crashes and then leaves the jungle planet wich is just a way to show the synthesis. The Mass relay network can be rebuilded as it's shown in the control ending.

About trying to explain how organic and synthetic can be merged... Well, can you explain me the Mass effect theory? It's just science-fiction it doesn't need to make sense because we are in a universe different from ours were the objects can have 0 mass.
