Agreed, actually from ME2 normandy only Joker surviwes everything ( of course if you move him fast enough in the 2-nd normandy attack, if not, watch youtube ). But I strongly belive that the ME3 Squad would be compiled by the player himself. I mean, everyone from the ME1 and ME2 survivors would be able to join team. But probably we could not take them all anyway. I think BW will do it that way: you have to recruit everyone who you did not in ME2, then youll probably chose the ultimate squad of your choice to join Normandy, and the others will also do their role, but from the 2-nd ground of the story, alike if you choose grunt for Normandy's team, then Wrex will lead Urdnot's to fight, or quite opposite. What do you think about that?
I really like your idea but I think it isnt feasible to do. That is a lot of lines of dialogue for characters who might not be in your ME3 universe. It was convienient for Morinth to be able to speak like Samara to save on one line of character dialogue while in combat or on planets. The game designers would have to make all the possible movements of characters as well as art designers making details on each character. Thats why my theory is that any charcter that could die will not be your squad mate in ME3
You dont have to wake legion or Grunt, but they fully dialogued them. You dont have to get the Zaeed expansion but they made him. See where I am going with this? ME2 seems kind of pointless if at least some of the squad members, that at least make sense, dont return as squadmates. The majority of the game was spent on the characters, and the mission itself was a small part.
While I dont think all the characters will return (i.e. ones that have business other than helping you), I can imagine maybe at least 4 of them should, that have nothing better to do. Which of them Garrus is the most likely.
But yes, there are already in ME2, 4 potential squadmates in ME2, that may never get used in YOUR game. So if theyve done it once, they might do it again.
The way I see it, you will have a few default characters, either old or new that cant have died yet as a default squad (Liara, ashley/Kaiden, then maybe some new characters or a couple formerly NPCS that will be squadmates (Gianna? Aria?CONRAD!) Then whichever squadmates from ME2 that make sense for ME3 they choose to return, they fill out the rest of your squad. IF they died in your save game too bad, play it again and save them if you want them.

I suppose the returning squad members (
and after reading that quote I am pretty much 100% sure there will be
returning squad members from ME2 ) will have their own stories but will
not play a crucial role in the plot this time. I wonder how
they'll get around it with Tali, but I guess centering the actual plot
on the Quarian / Geth conflict can make her involvement not totally
crucial to it.
I think the actual VA work to have a
"generic quarian" replacement for her would be quite a lot, but not as
much as most think. The most extensive VA work is done for Shepard, the
rest don't have as many lines as one would think.
I doubt they want to go the "replacement" route. Im sure their kicking themselves over Ashley Kaiden now since, I mean they have to be included. Its got to be a pain in the ass to create "replacements" for 12 characters, essentially making 24 fully dialogued characters when its a fact only half of them will appear in anyones game.
Thats why I dont think "every "character from ME2 will return, I really think at best half of them will, and we will have an equal number of default squadmembers (totaling in the same amount of squadmates as me2). but this way, its more that possible for all the characters they dialogued to appear in the game at once (save for ashley/kaiden). and if the me2 characters died in your playthrough, you miss out on some characters. For some reason people think "this is out of the question!" because bioware is "screwing them" out of content. Generally this seems to come from people that cant seem to save everyone in the suicide mission and they dont want to get "screwed by bioware" because they cant save everyone in the ridiculously easy suicide mission.
Hell if you dont do any side quests in ME1, you miss out on a chunk of side quests in me2.
As far as Tali is concerned, I doubt since she can die, she will be a integral part to the plot of me3. (which honestly is what makes the possibility of some ME2 characters returning as squadmates likely, since their presence is not necessary to push the story)
