1. You are forgetting that most of the relays are in habitable systems. The Charon Relay is in the Sol System. So Earth and the entire solar system should be wiped out. Be that is it may the entire combined Galactic Fleet, Normandy included, would be destroyed when the Charon Relay explodes. This would be the case for all of the homeworlds of all the major races, if they some how managed to avoid the shockwave. They'd have no homes to return to. Pretty massive plot hole.

That's not really a plot hole. An unfortunate result, perhaps, but not a plot hole.

It's a plot hole. Earth is only shown to be destroyed if you pick the Destroy ending and your EMS is too low. Following prior lore,  it should be destroyed either way because of exploding Charon Relay. Crap I forgot that the Citadel is giant Mass Relay so between it blowing up and the Charon Relay blowing up everyone should die not matter what.

While true, I'm willing to ascribe this to a "we just didn't see it" scenario. Because logically, what you wrote should have happened and, to the best of my knowledge, we never see it not happening. (Take that, double-negatives!)

It happened in my ending, anyways. Which I apparently have to write, because the people who are supposed to couldn't be fussed.
