" If you firmly believe in Destroy, this blog may not be for you!"

In other words, "I don't want people who have thought this through in depth to criticize me"

Destroy IS a good ending, it is the only one that lets you get your original goal of wiping out the reapers. You give the galaxy the chance to start again without being under the will of the Leviathan species creations, the cost may be high but it's the only one that makes reasonable sense.

Control is what indoctrinated people in power want, it's what they always wanted, Javik confirmed this as they even had a similar group to Cerberus.

Synthesis doesn't have ANY backstory as to this even being an option, it literally just sounds like trickery "go jump into the giant beam of energy, it's cool, you'll be fine".

Refusal doesn't make sense, this has gone on for nearly a billion years, the crucible is the culmination of every dead species'technology that has tried to resist and you squander the chance and leave it up to another race in another cycle because you couldn't make the decision that THEY clearly did.

Now, the fact that synthetic life other than the reapers getting destroyed, just doesn't make sense, the destroy ending should literally only kill the reapers and shouldn't even touch existing synthetics. You could stretch this to say that because they Geth have had reaper code used, that maybe they get wiped out as well, but seriously, that's a massive longshot. Too many inconsistencies in these endings and not enough narrative to back it up.
