Should have blacked out the time. Prepare to have the BSN descend upon you. You see, you didn't really carry the match unless you did it in 20 minutes or less and scored above 200k.

Ha. Right.
BSN - Working as intended.

I don't see the Human Adept.
Decided to quote it, because I'm curious. You mention others dying, and it looks like you used a Huntress (ie you could drop aggro.)
So, with that time, and those pictures, I'm thinking you let people die, didn't revive them (lone survivor seems to support that.) and may well have been excessively using duration-specced tactical cloak, which would explain the 42 minute time.
If that's the case, and you used Dark Channel to hide the whole time while DoT killed everything, I gotta say you should have been able to keep your team alive. If you were taking that kind of time to kill the enemies, you certainly could have taken the 8 seconds to revive your team-mates at the same time. And even with a damage-specc'd tactical cloak, reviving teammates is easy.
Doesn't look so much like you carried, kinda looks more like you hid behind 3 meat shields. But pictures can only say so much, really.
I always go out of my way to revive teammates: up until it puts the mission at risk. I literally drop what I'm doing to go revive, even across the map. Many of my matches in the past have scrubbed because I took reviving teammates too far. During this game, I even focused on enemies that my teammates were fighting, which in turn kept them alive longer. On the extraction wave, I had no gels/ops left. I barely made the run myself. If I stop to revive, no one extracts.
If I go down, the mission fails: simple as that. Once I started to get low on gels/ops, I kited enemies away to still revive. Even managed to get them about half the time, despite everything still being alive. If I go rushing in with 5 sec cloak and a combat drone that ignores my invisibility, I'm asking for trouble. Get hit once and it's a stagger - then cloak runs out, and I get gunned down by the two Primes and multiple Rocket Troopers still alive. Anyone that has played with me knows that "hiding behind meat shields" is not my M.O.
And hm. I don't remember saying I carried anything. I said I pulled it out; in doing so, I attempted to remove any connotation of bravado.

Wow.. I understand everything... except the reason why it took over 40 minutes...
The game probably would have went faster if you gave up on helping the teammates.

I actually burned through several ops/gels attempting to keep people alive.
