The real question here is, do you know how science fiction works? Because half of the technology in Mass Effect is just downright impossible. The Crucible itself defies a couple laws of nature itself. In many ways, it's like fantasy; it's not how plausible the laws are, what matters most is internal consistency. You cannot apply shoddy mathematics and external logic to a magical device billions of years in the making. That is not at all supported in lore, sorry.
