And the ending isn't JUST about satisfaction, it's about bioware misleading fans on how they were going to do the endings. I MIGHT be inclined to agree with you that campaigning to get the ending changed would be a bit much if it was JUST about personal preference. But no, there are numerous oddly specific quotes on what Bioware SAID they were going to do that's quite the opposite of what they actually did. They promised they wouldn't let the ending boil down to an A,B,C choice (which is NOT opinion, the ending is in fact determined mainly by three different choices), they said the endings would be wildly different with numerous variations (last I checked, there was only 6 minor deviations of the ending altogether, even ME2 had more variation), and promised answers to most of your questions (or as you said, most people failed assume what would happen, something FAR from actual answers).
