Agreed, and I think that's a huge reason why people fight for IT so hard, because we want to believe that the bad writing and basically inconsequential choices we spent so long deciding on throughout the trilogy actually came to fruition, and not an ABC ending. It also didn't help that the lead writer left the project after ME 2, which is why the whole 'dark matter' plot point on Haestrom was completely abandoned. For people like me, we like all these different theories because we want to a game we love so much to have the perfect ending, not the result of rushed writers at the hands of greedy publishers.
