That's a really good summation of points and I thank you.

Also after some thought, I have reasoned that maybe the genophage plot could be merged with the synthetic vs. organic theme if you interpret both as a "right to life." Both themes in ME deal with a form of life (if you consider the geth, EDI and other synthetics to be a form of life) being subjugated by another form of life: Krogans cultural suppression by other races and the ideological differences between synthetics and organics and the wars that occur because of them. These can all come down to whether each side has a right to their livelihood, whether they deserve to continue and how in the end if we could just walk in each others shoes and each do better at viewing the universe as the other does, peace may be found and understanding, achieved.
