I never said she didn't believe that. I agree she does. However I also see her investment talk equally giving motive as to why they weren't concerned about everyone else dying in the process. Nothing else mattered. There was no line that wouldn't be crossed to ensure that Shepard was brought back and willing to work for them.
She knew Shepard was physically capable of getting to the shuttles when she woke him. She also rather conveniently left a full suit of armor and a pistol within reach of him. That's not exactly what I'd consider a good plan. Shepard could have woken up on his own at any time, saw he was in a Cerberus facility and had the means to fight his way out without asking questions.
Again, if Shep couldn't fight his way out then they'd know the project was a failure. If he didn't have the strength to fight his way through those flimsy mechs, regardless of how functional he was, then there was no way he'd be able to survive the Omega mission. They couldn't afford to wait any longer.
The pistol wasn't loaded, and there were no clips in the room. The armor is N7 armor that Shepard walks around in anytime he isn't on a ship. Sounds to me like a hospital having a change of your clothes and some of your belongings, but nothing readily dangerous. Further, we have no way of knowing if the pistol was ever meant for Shepard, or if it was there for the staff in the event he woke up (another reason it would be empty, as she wouldn't want to actually risk hurting Shepard).
Yes, because there was nothing experimental done when bringing him back. I mean, it isn't like Shepard is the first person in medical history to have undergone these procedures. The long list of previous successes have certainly allowed for Miranda to have adequate information to be able to test Shepard's physical capabilities without him being awake, at least enough to know he'd be able to perform like the N7 trained Spectre capable of fighting through mechs that have slaughtered an entire station full or personnel (many of which were probably not terrible combatants, unless they went cheap on hiring security to protect their 4+ billion credit investment). Let's also just ignore Jacob's repeated comments about "no more tests" clearly also referring to physical (else why would he need to vouche for something you claim she is clearly well aware of by virtue of Shepard's survival and medical scans alone), as Jacob is obviously just making assumptions that Miranda had previously planned to perform extensive physical and mental tests like those commonly given to individuals who recover from things like comas.
Seriously, Occam's razor leads me to suspect the odd behaving and disgruntled employee with means, motive, and opportunity. He stands to lose nothing (at no point does the trained medical head ever express any concern for others, or the loss of his co-workers). He is caught at the scene of the crime. He is clearly hiding something (jumping at Jacob's comment), and was surprised to see Shepard awake (something tells me the medical head would be more capable of judging Shepard's physical abilities, especially since he is the one who apparently was in the position to tell Miranda whether or not Shepard could even be brought back to begin with). If nothing else, I'd say there is more evidence against Wilson than you have provided for Miranda. All you have provided for Miranda is assumptions that require me to believe that either TiM and Miranda are scheming on the level of Dune (unrealistic and utterly implausible, as no plan ever works that smoothly...let alone one with the number of variables present), or they are utter morons (I tend to doubt this since they managed to get 4+ billion credits to revive Shepard, that alone says they have some form of common sense at least).
Not saying it is impossible, just that you are stretching beleivability by claiming Wilson is completely innocent and Miranda was behind everything. Something that lame I expect in games by companies other than BW.
