This is why I really like the "indoctrination" theory. All three choices are representing the choices that are in your mind during the final stages of indoctrination for Shepard. Destroy being breaking the indoctrination process. Every resolution that is shown is how his mind plays out his choice. Blue, Red Green beams, exactly the same ending except for Reapers taking off, Reapers shutting down.
Think about some of the little conversations through-out the game.
Shepard and EDI (not a cutscene convo but one of the quick and dirty ones): EDI tells Shepard she was talking to Mordin about Salarians that have cybernetic parts and how they are not Salarian anymore...blah blah blah, Shepard asks EDI if he is something like that because of how Cerberus put him back together. She tells him no, his brain and brain activity is still organic so he is still human. Kind of goes against what the Catalyst told him later.
Also the conversation he has with Eve (female Krogan..the shaman). She tells him how she got out of her trial by digging the wrong way while in the dark cave and found a crystal that she then gives him. To me, that denotes she had to do the opposite of what she thought needed to be done in order to complete her mission. In the end, if Shepard chooses the "red" option of destroy, it is the option that is shown Anderson doing when being explained to Shepard by the boy prior to the choice being made. Is Anderson one who would do a "renegade" option? For that matter, is TIM someone who would go the Paragon route?
Oh ****, I am rambling. Anyway, it's nice to think of the end choices as figments of Shepard's imagination and how he deals with the indoctrination process.
Hey it could all be very bad writing (for the ending only)...I dunno. All I know is it is fun to talk about.
