If the Illusive Man was the one not indoctrinated at the end and everyone else, Anderson included, were. After playing this again, I wish BioWare would have given us such a story. Where there was no pure way to defeat the Reapers and that it took someone like the Illusive Man and Cerberus to bring them down.
The Reapers were built up so well in 1 and 2... And were a huge letdown in 3. Defeating them by using and mastering their own tech like Cerberus was doing would have been amazing, not the Deus Ex Machina known as the Crucible.
How awesome would it have been...

Mastering their own tech and being better than they are with it wouldn't have been a DEM too?

Think about it. No other species had done it. It would have been the curveball they wouldn't have expected.

Part of that is my imagination for my Super-IT interpretation. (Not the same thing as what you're saying, but similar in that TIM is part of some higher story opposing the Reapers that Shepard still doesn't get.)
Where we lose no matter what, but also 'win', but from a point of view, taking, for example, Control, we could actually take a step TOWARDS understanding Reaper technology MORE THAN otherwise (and without sacrificing so much of ourselves as Synthesis would).
Its like, yeah, Destroy you fully wake up or die trying, but its not like a 'dream' (Control? Synthesis?) has to be a bad one! Heck, maybe make it into something amazing, albeit more dangerous.
TIM would be 'Indoctrinated' still, and pushing well into it, but he'd be understanding its nature and risks more than say an Anderson etc that may just act in denial of it (resisting it more, sure, but also acting more as a tool of it).
