Why is a crash-test necessary at all? Because people have to make sure that reconstructed/reactivated relays will not kill anyone inside a ship due to incorrect calibrations.
(1) Okay, why does the colour change
(2) Why is the outcome different if you choose synthesis
(3) Why is Joker worried and clearly trying to escape it
(4) Why send the already damaged Normandy
(5) Why send theNormandy with Shepard's squad in it,
(6) Why don't we see Shepard if she survives destroy
(7) How does the Normandy crash, were does it crash, why is it an obvious continuation from the scenes before it indicating that no significant time has past, why does your crew walk out and look at the horizon to symbolize new beginnings?
(1) Long-term post-effect from Crucible explosion.
So........... new Relays operate with a different color.
That makes perfect sense.
(2) Normandy crashes as in any other ending.
Don't bullsh*t me, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Joker suddenly has Reaper material texture lines and glowing eyes after being hit with the wave.
(3) Will you warry if you control panel alerts you about critical system overload?
Yes.
Why is he clearly trying to escape the wave?
(4) The normandy is clearly not damaged before the shockwave hits it. Thanks for one more proof of my theory 
Like I said, Insane Troll Logic.
It was damaged, you have to be blind.
(5) Shepard's squad proved it good enough to complete very risky tasks.
See other points about why they aren't needed, and neither is Joker or EDI's mobile platform.
(6) Shepard has some other important tasks.
Oh, but hasn't he proved himself good enough to complete very risky tasks? That's his ship, he's an Alliance Commander. Why is Liara and Garrus there, Javik too, but not the ship's captain?
(7) EC will explain that. And there are clues about time difference (read OP).
You can't explain any of it, in other words.
Found maybe five holes in your theory.
