Genocidal, perhaps. But a maniac? I don't remember my Shepard laughing his head off as he walked towards the tube.

my Shepard was laughing the whole time, "Why so SERIOUS?"

I think destroy is a waste of two species, reapers and geth, both of which can survive and leave in peaceful co-existence in the control ending without splicing the universe together.
That and I feel it was shepards destiny to either become the godhero of the universe or manage it while almost dying, so really either choice works for me.
BTW my shepard got out of the rubble and reuinited with my LI because I said so, end of that discussion.
Reapers are a waste of many species. They also have made no attempts to be peaceful at all. There is no issue with killing the Reapers.
The Geth are a different matter.
After the control ending, that's why I used past tense in my sentence structure. Sorry if you don't speak english as a first language, as that's happened before and was very embarassing when I corrected that person, but that statement was meant to state that the reapers after control ending can live in peaceful co-existence with the rest of the galaxy, and that it doens't require fusing everyone's dna to do so.
There is a bit of an issue, which is that the reapers themselves may have been forced into obeying the catalyst, with the expection of a few reapers who may have had a genetic variable that made them more individualistic in reaper form such as harbinger, rather that doing this for their own pleasure or satisfaction.
Had they been indoctrinated, this would be like charging everyone who ends up under leviathans control for what they did while under their influence. If they are more hive mind like in nature, than this would be like trying to kill off an entire county and all it's populace becasue of a single individual, which is not okay. And if they are completly mindless, than this is like destroying all cars, or all guns in the world, becasue of a single individual who used one to commit crimes.
That's my view on it though, but I do see the destroy point of view, and that's why I have it as a cannon ending as well.
The issue is that you don't have any assurances that the Reapers will be peaceful. The ones we've spoken with certainly don't seem to like us Organics. All we have is the one who manipulates the Reapers (who up to now were the most insidious puppet masters we knew of), telling us that unlike that dude downstairs who's now dead and who was being admittedly controlled by him, that we can do it because we're totally not being manipulated.
The way I see it is: We need the Crucible to destroy the Reapers. We have 1 Crucible. Synthesis and Control leave the Reapers (who we can't really trust at this point to be peaceful) around but no Crucible. Meaning that if our trust is misplaced, the galaxy is screwed.
And then there's the issue of giving Shepard who is already pretty much unstoppable, absolute power for eternity. He's a good guy, but I don't think we could trust anyone with that.
Destory has other risk as well, such as the reaper corpses still having the possibility to indoctrination tech inside of them, tech that someone could scavenge and find a way to reverse engineer and use on others.
Another thing to consider is whether the galaxy can survive on it;s own and stay united. Think for a moment, of all the times the galaxy has united and divided, always it's been with the threat of an external enemy, such as the rachni and krogan.
You now have them with no threat, all interplaced in eachothers territory, and who without the reapers or shepards intervention, were shown to be happy with fighting and destorying eachother.
I'd call that a recipe for galactic civil war waiting to happen. Heck, even the fact that the forces of the terminus system have been allowed to enter council space is a cause for alarm, as there is no garuntee they'll want to leave after the war and not annex all the territory they can.
So to me, destory has the chance of galactic strife and civil war, control has the risk of continued cycles or an evil dictatorship, and synthesis has the risk of galactic sterilization and mental tampering.
Yes there are risks, but risks we can potentially beat without a crucible. And that for me is the crucial point.
I'm not so sure. If the galaxy does end up in civil war betweeen the terminus systems and council space, the result will be a very bloody, very costly, potentially world destroying war depending on if the turians decide to escalte their retaliation for terminus pirate raids by using WMD's with council sanction.
I'm thinking the cold war, if it had actually broken out, followed by a neuclear winter type incident from one side wanting to take the other down with it.
