I gave him a better option...
He'd be stupid not to take it...

Shepard:  I'll blow you all to hell right now!

Catalyst:  Okay.

Shepard:  I MEAN IT!

Catalyst:  Feel free to follow the instructions I gave you on how to do so.

Shepard:  FEAR ME, DAMNIT!

The catalyst didn't give me the instructions...

I don't think it's a moral decision at all.

Do you trust the starchild? If not, pick destroy.
If so, do you accept it's reasoning? If not, pick control.
If so, pick Synthesis.

Actually, if you don't trust the starchild, then you can't pick anything at all, since even the apparent "destroy" option may be a lie.  For all you know, the "destroy" option actually destroys all organic life instead.

So one of those earlier cycles put a feature into their anti-reaper weapon to destroy all organic life? A rather unorthodox approach.

Keep in mind that in control, not only are the beings that built the Mass Relays still alive, but they're under Shepard's control.  Relay network would not be down for very long in that scenario.

Uh, I just love this very special scenario of control! Think of it! Shepard takes control of the Reapers and helps rebuild the Mass Relay Network! Then the Reapers under Shepards control also help to rebuild the entire galaxy! 

I can already see it! Millions of marauders building houses on Palaven! Peaceful armies of huks planting flowers on Earth, their former family members watching them cheerfully! And then everybody will live happily ever after, because the mighty Shepard and his/her peacekeeping army of Reaper-Angels will prevent any kind of war to happen ever again! 

Just imagine! The Krogans want to take revenge on the Salarians? No way, Shepard is here to save the day! Shepard, who makes sure everyone does the right thing! Hooray...

And then..comes the day...when all the races of the galaxy unite...to rise against this self-proclaimed guardian of the galaxy that constantly meddles in the affairs of each and everyone...The Shepard! We despise this name! The Shepard, who had the chance to wipe out the Reapers, but instead chose to become one of them! Shepard, once hope of the galaxy, now nothing more than a traitor, a collaborateur to the same creatures that killed millions upon millions...families, friends, whole planets...how could Shepard ever fall so low?

Galaxy unite! Down with tyranny! To hell with The Shepard and his so-called "beneficial rulership!"

Yes, this scenario is my most favorite concerning control!

"I know you've thought about destroying us.  You can wipe out all synthetic life if you want. *raises bridge to boomtube*"

My point stands that you can't use the option the Catalyst tells you about freely as an intimidation tactic.

I can already see it! Millions of marauders building houses on Palaven! Peaceful armies of huks planting flowers on Earth, their former family members watching them cheerfully! And then everybody will live happily ever after, because the mighty Shepard and his/her peacekeeping army of Reaper-Angels will prevent any kind of war to happen ever again!

"Shepard ended the Reaper threat and became a legend" I believe the text at the end says.

With low ems and having destroyed the collector base the crucible does just that, at least on Earth. so yes? Of course that assume the previous cycle did create the plans and the Reapers had indoctrinated servants disrupt the building of it but never felt the need to actually destroy the plans for some odd reason...

Ah...don't spoil my fantasy with this scene of absolute silliness! And of course everybody knows that one second after grmaps and his little friend went home the sky was suddenly filled with a fleet of cuttlefish-creatures and a voice was heard

IM A THE SHEPHERD, AND YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN MY CATTLE!

So the legend ended in another cycle of darkness and despair

So rejecting canon = endings are bad.  I'm certainly not surprised to see this sort of logic.

actually it seems to destroy everything. Not "organics instead". And the implication there is that because of your low EMS the construction/state of the crucible sucks. Not the designs which are independent of your actions this cycle, since they were there before this cycle.
