Prothean squadmate is easily one of the DUMBEST thing BW could put in ME3. Even dumber than the Human-Reaper Larva in ME2. There is no sane excuse to include something so unneeded and contrite.
I think you mean "contrived". Contrite means "penitent".
Prothy being alive and a squadmate is as contrived as Legion being a friendly geth and a squadmate.

A Prothean using 2185 weaponry? No.
Wow, this is an issue to you? Just... wow. Even so, nothing says he doesn't have access to his own weapons that can be replicated on the Normandy.

A Prothean not being taken by the Alliance and interrogated immediately out of Shepard's reach? No.
In an all out galactic war?! Are you mad? That's the least of their damn concerns.

I could accept a Prothean VI or an AI. I could maybe even accept a living Prothean who stayed in a cryo tube in the Citadel core.
The Citadel Core-theory is the most probable one at the moment. I'm more inclined to believe we will encounter Prothy on Mars (the first location after leaving Earth) to offset the problem Legion had in ME2.

But a Prothean SQUADMATE? NEVER.
This is what people said of Legion.
"A geth squadmate? THE MOST RETARDED IDEA EVER. Geth are enemies, not squadmates!"
How did that work out?
Yeah, exactly.

he should at least have a cool name. Prothy is lame-o-to-the-max-o
Prothy is just a fan-name in the vein of Refund Guy or Techno Turian. Naturally I want him to have a real, serious name in the game.
