Congratulations, you don't get the parody (and instead are being arrogant and insulting) and you don't seem to understand that what God Child says still makes absolutely no sense, not even for a machine.
The Problem:
Make sure that Synthetics never wipe out all life in the galaxy.
Solution 1:
Create a race of guardians that patrol the galaxy constantly, eliminating synthetics as they go. Said race would also inform every sufficiently developed race about this threat and hold out the prospect of being wiped out as a punishment if they invented such synthetics to make sure they can never do that again.
Sentient races would understand the threat and reasoning, if they are sufficiently informed. Being diplomatic and not too strict about the "wiping out as a punishment" thing (i.e. only going through with it in very severe cases) would probably make the cause even easier to present and secure maintenance of order.
Communicating with sentient races is key for success in this solution and will guarantee success.
Solution 2:
Create the same race as in Solution 1. Make them leave the galaxy, come back every 50.000 years and wipe every advanced race from the face of the galaxy, whether they create synthetics or not. Don't leave any trace so that nobody knows what happens, why they were wiped out or what threat synthetics may become. Also, don't make them too thorough (the Protheans on Ilos hid successfully, so the Reapers can overlook something); make said race ignore the possibility that advanced synthetics may survive the cycle and devote the next 50.000 years to eliminating all organics. Also ignore that most synthetics sophisticated enough to pose a threat to all life would probably be more interested in studying life, rather than eliminating it in its entirety. Don't let anyone named Shepard present you with irrefutable evidence of lasting peace between organics and synthetics.
Odds of resistance during every cycle: 100%. Odds of traces being overlooked: 100%. Odds of eventual destruction of guardian race because of stupidity of solution, compared to other solution: 100%.
Obviously, the Catalyst chose Solution 2 instead of 1. They would have had to set up such a 'plot twist' by a completely different approach. The cycle doesn't fit the goal, and vice versa. With them hybernating for such a long time, the simplest explanation would be self-preservation: They procreate by harvesting species, leaving those too primitive to realize what's going on for next time, also taking whatever advanced technology was developed to improve themselves, then destroying all evidence so that the next cycle is just as unprepared.
That makes them the dominant species in the galaxy, the rulers of a galaxy-spanning empire without having to actually maintain it.
So much for debunking without breaking a sweat.
