The argument for the ending being changed would be a lot more difficult to make if there wasn't precedent within the Mass Effect games for major story content being added as DLC.

Lair of the Shadow Broker and Arrival are both major story additions that are in many ways stories that shaped the Mass Effect 3 story. Liara is the Shadow Broker in every playthrough and only the LotSB DLC is there to show why. Arrival sets up why Shepard was in Vancouver.

If you played Mass Effect 2 retail and directly went from that to Mass Effect 3, both the characters of Liara and why Shepard was on Earth would not be explained by anything you did yourself.

That's the precedent that makes Mass Effect 3's ending completely up for change - the Collectors were not the only threat there was the Alpha Relay incident, which, if Shepard did not intervene, would have doomed the galaxy.

Since the Collectors were not the only existential threat, and a DLC story content became canon and what sets up the beginning of ME3, then the ending as we have seen it cannot be canon. Arrival changed that in ME2 and a new DLC can change that in ME3.

That is why there is precedent for Indoctrination Theory or any other ending that Bioware could approach that would exist either seperate or alongside the Catalyst's choice.

It's been done before and it can be done again.
