I've done all the origin stories and psyche profiles...
I dunno, Earthborn just resonates better. In relation to Tali, not having the love of parents, yet having the support of others, would probably go over better than MY PARENTS ARE DEEEEAAAaaaad.

Earthborn is where its at. We've had to fight for everything we have gotten in life, and now that we have something special, its not going anywhere 

Shepard had everything he ever loved torn from him in a split second. His family, his home, his future. Everything.
He spent two years wandering, scavenging to survive, trying to find purpose, meaning. A reason to keep going.
Then he saw an Alliance recruitment ad and stopped dead in his tracks.
He had a choice. Go home, rebuild, start over or take up the Oath of Service and make sure what happened to him never has to happen to any child ever again.
But it was never enough. Mission after mission, he fell short, time and time again.
They called him a Hero on Elysium, not bothering to count all the lives he failed to save.
He isn't a hero...
But with Tali... He belongs again. He feels that love that was taken from him so long ago. She is everything he needs and wants.
The events of Last Son just cemented it.
