Lily, we've already seen Bioware add a new ending to a game. So you're "you don't" response isn't constructive at all. All Bioware has to say is 'you did, but it was a very narrow win'.

The idea with Synthesis is still plausible. Organics synthesized with technology would still have to reproduce. There's only two options there; they don't reproduce and simply make new bio-organic shells to inhabit as theirs wear out... OR they have organic children who are then ehanced with synthetic parts. The current generation would be synthesized, but what about the next?

Not every race would be happy about the synthesis. Some would likely be angry about not behing given a choice and wished for their children to remain organic so they didn't 'updrage' them.

We're working in a science fiction universe where there are no end to possibilities. You can't say 'this doesn't work' when it could so long as there are people with imaginations showing you how it could.
