Lets list the errors again:


 * Wikipedia is not a viable source.


 * Reapers can't manipulate High tech machines, like the geth and EDI.


 * Explain the benefits of keeping a couple thousand Collectors in Dark Space, if the Collectors fail the first time then the system is flawed to begin with, making extra Collectors pointless.


 * After a certain point, even if "blinded by power", the "factions" will realize what's going on. Again, even a small number of IoM or Forerunner Ships could curbstomp the Reapers.


 * They have been at war this entire time, I think they are prepared to face the Reapers, which is just a fancy way of saying that they are prepared for war.


 * If a small number of Forerunner ships can destroy a Reaper fleet, how can the Reapers harvest other civilizations that had the tech level of Forerunners?


 * My rough estimate from what we know puts the amount of Reapers at roughly 18,000 S-Class, a lot but not enough to make a massive difference.


 * Once again, even if the IoM and the Forerunners were extremely weakened, they could still destroy the Reapers. The Reapers are a mild nuisance at best.
