That's pretty much what I said. I just feel like the people who are insisting on having a "Hollywood happy ending" are going down the wrong path, two separate ways. Making it a subjective issue gives Bioware a lot more leeway to play the "artistic integrity" card, and while the lack of even the possibility to earn a happy ending might be annoying, it really pales in comparison to other problems - the sheer lack of choice and poorly explained nature of the ending, for instance.
