The advantage of using the indoctrination theory (and never in a million years did I think I'd use those words in that order) for a ME sequel wouldn't really be that it brings Shepard back. It would be that it overrides the vastly divergent possibilities of the endings that make a sequel - or at least a sequel that doesn't override player choice - almost impossible.

I mean, it's still a horrible idea. But so is a post-ME3 game in the first place.
