You don't seem to understand. "Repurposed" is not "Synthesis". What you should do is post a picture of Shepard from ME2 or ME3. 
Right back atcha with "you don't seem to understand" thing. Synthesis = organic + synthetic. Everything in that picture is a combination of organic and synthetic. It's not hard to understand. I'd think the fact that the synthesis visual effect is almost a cut and paste of the Overlord one would be telling to people, but noooooo, if ghostbrat says it good then it must be good! Why would a Reaper lie?!
Right. So if smash my synthetic t-shirt through your skull, then I would have performed synthesis on you. Yeah. But that is not quite how it is to be understood in the game though. ![=]](https://lvlt.forum.bioware.com/public/style_emoticons/default/sideways.png)
Whatever you say. Reaper talks you into killing yourself because it'll make everyone awesome and you jump head first into the death beam. Sounds like Darwinism to me.
the obvious points missed is that you cannot actually 'kill' a reaper, only kind of knock them out. If you totally destroy one, you eliminate it's cargo and data stores, that is, those reaped parish, not the reaper, it's within the catalyst. The reapers do only that(bad enough tho) they reap/harvest. But destroying or controlling them is folly. In practical terms, the only way to stop the cycle and end the reaper threat is to assimilate them, via synthesis. That the simplest explanation for it. In synthesis, 'everyone' is over lord, and If everyone is overlord, then there are NO thralls..even the Leviathan are nutralized.
Organic Leviathan started the ME quest, Shep is the human organic to spell out the fini.
There are other forces at work in the MEU, and the crucible and choices menu is the tell. Who designed it and who figured out the choices menu? The mystery of it is still out there.
( the common enemy, if any, is ourselves.. and the canon of ME trilogy.)
