Apparently use of Element Zero was prematurely destroying the universe, which was a problem since any spacefaring race would discover and eventually try to harness it. The Reapers built the Mass Relay network and did their 50,000 year kill cycle to try to limit the damage done while they tried to figure out a way to stop it. It still had shades of "we need to kill organic life to save organic life", but rather than Kill/Control/Synthesis the endings might have been something like destroy the reapers/destroy the relays/ work with the reapers.

Also, Bioware's pretty clearly familiar with Star Trek, and TNG had an episode with the same plot, where they discovered that warp drives were damaging subspace. In the episode, they didn't decide to destroy civilization to prevent people from breaking the universe, they just made a speed limit so people weren't burning maximum warp all the time. Maybe someone just saw that episode and realized that their plan didn't actually make sense.

Once they introduced the Leviathans, things got even dumber:

Plus a dude goes all stolen valor on you if you wear actual N7 armor in the game.
