Didn't see anyone post this yet but I hate it when people make new topics out of stuff like this, so here you go. It's an interview with Mac and Aaryn that actual yields some interesting answers. It could have been just a ballpark sort of comment, but they say that the colonists are in cryo for 600 years before they reach Andromeda.

Which fits with an FTL speed of a little less than 12 ly/day, which is the canon speed of standard vessels in Mass Effect. That's proof they aren't using Reaper tech or anything else.

Well, at least not when it comes to speed. They could still be using it for the drive discharge issue. Or their reverse-engineered core isn't as efficient as actual Reaper tech so is slower, like how the Thanix Cannon isn't as powerful as a Reaper's cannon despite being a reverse-engineered product.

What if pi was really square?

 

pi is a number. A real number. And non-rational. Most numbers are non-rational. The ratio of rational to non-rational numbers is 0.
