Has anyone taken note of the point in both Control speeches where Reaper-Shepard says that the man he was "achieved his purpose"? This implies that the Reapers' had a purpose in mind for Shepard. He technically merges with the Reapers' consciousness in both literal and IT perspectives. Since the Reapers' also favor Synthesis, it could be implied that if the Crucible fires it indoctrinates everyone to the Reapers' ideology. So you have two paths of enslavement and one path to freedom.
This statement is kind of a fusion of both literalism and IT
Edit: Just realised that I didn't explain my "implied" portion. The Reapers' favor control over the course of galactic evolution. They abhore chaos. Regardless of what the Catalyst says, their actions do corroborate with this idea. So if Shepard's purpose was to enable control over the many, and they want Shepard to use what he is to synthesize all life, this could be another way for him to help the Reapers facilitate more direct control over the galaxy
