On the contrary, I believe Control to be the ideal ending. For one, the Reapers, with Shepard as the new Catalyst, will protect the galaxy from the crazy extinction-grade synthetics by wiping them out before everybody can be killed. Second, the Reapers aid in the reconstruction of the galaxy, fixing everything just as quickly as they were wiping it out hours before. Third, note that Destroy takes synthetic life out of the picture by, well, destroying it, and Synthesis takes organic life out of the picture by giving making everybody partly synthetic, but only Control allows for the simultaneous peaceful existence of organics and synthetics. Society goes back to normal, and Shepbinger keeps watch for anything nasty headed the galaxy's way, acting as a guardian and protecting everybody from any massive threat, be it external or internal. Shepard lives, the entire squad lives, all the races live, society is back to normal, and the organics vs. synthetics conflict is solved.
