Yeah... I'm not so sure about the raloi. After all, what would they bring to the table? From what little we know about them, they appear to be somewhat less advanced than we are today. After all, contact with them was established when they launched their first space telescope. To put this into context, we launched our first space telescope 40 years ago. And the most well-known space telescope, the Hubble Telescope, was launched 20 years ago. So, unless we need cannon fodder to occupy the Reapers for all of five minutes or so, I don't see the raloi, who appear to be a species that has just mastered rudimentary orbital spaceflight, being viable allies.
