There's many people who don't mind when a storyteller makes a story that they don't explicitly approve of. There's plenty of people who liked the endings, regardless of what the "Retake" movement would like to believe. Changing the ending to please those people who disliked it solely because it wasn't exactly what they wanted would alienate the people who liked the ending.

One can't argue about "extreme" members of the "Retake" movement, given that the entire concept of the movement was extreme—a refusal to allow a storyteller ending a series in a way that wasn't exactly what they wanted. One needs to only look at the name to see that supporting the "Retake" movement is supporting the idea that Mass Effect belongs to you and you alone.
