2). You should keep in mind that the decision to bring Shepard back is made by perhaps the being in the galaxy with the biggest ego and more resources than anyone else. The Illusive Man brings him back because a) he can, and
he wants Shep and not someone else. Shepard saved the galaxy, saved the princess, beat Bowser, however you want to look at it... and thus TIM chooses him to head the mission investigating the human colonies. Yeah... he could get someone else (Kai Leng, for example), but he doesn't want to. He has the money, he has the hubris, and at the end of the day, TIM wanted Shepard.3) Not really a contradiction... but I can see how that scene could be construed as bogus. My rationale is that with the Normandy disabled, they have no way to launch explosives so the only ones available are man-portable ones. Likely the team couldn't physically carry enough conventional explosives to blow the door (the Cain might or might not work, but I'd have to read the description of the weapon again).
Also, for what it's worth, you can poke holes in or minimize the plot of any game if you work at it. Nothing in the entertainment business holds up to subjective scrutiny because we (as the consumers) can believe or disbelieve any aspect of a character's motivations or the plausibility of a plot point at our whim.
TLDR = If you are looking for a reason(s) to dislike the plot, you will find them, and easily.
