Your ship can fight through suns cores and planets with easy but you go to upgrade your shields to travel through one Debris field.

"Lifts" (aka Elevator) were all the rage before the battle of the Citadel after; two years later you find that your ship has one of the last ones left in the galaxy, (besides that one on project overlord that went to the basement).

2 years is long enough for everyone in the galaxy to change there weapons from heat sinks to thermal clips.

In the future, everyone had the same contractor making outposts, lookouts and mines so they would look the same on every planet in the galaxy you travel too. After the battle of the Citadel, everyone destroy them and changed this for new units and houses just with same looking beds, Kitchen tops and shelves that they got from Ikea.

No one has food or water in there Kitchen, just thermal clips.

Shelves are not for books or files, just first aid kits and thermal clips.

In the future no one needs a bed till after 2185 in there home or workplace.

If someone asks you to do something right now, because its a matter of life and death, (eg, people or a person is taken hostile, geth or someone else is attack something or other, etc, etc). No matter how much time passes everyone will hold out till you get there (unless you did the reaper IFF mission)

I am sure we can think of some more....
