Some people insist that Synthesis is meant to be seen as a "better" choice simply because they want to complain about Synthesis being meant to be seen as a "better" choice.

Frankly, the information you're presented with in the Leviathan DLC gives a lot of factors that would have influenced the civilization that eventually felt that organic/synthetic conflict was inevitable. If anything, it gives more credence to the idea that the views of the Catalyst and its creators were flawed.
