I'm sorry how can it literally not be the worst? It can be it would just be very hard to test and empirically prove. In my experience though of the thousands of pieces of media I have experienced it is the worst.
Also in your graph the ME3 reality should be WAY below average game ending. Average game endings are usually at the very least consistent with the tone of the game and don't create massive plot holes. They also don't require fans to try and come up with theories to make them not dreadful, where the theories also don't fit in with the game's canon. Something ME3 can't claim.
I mean seriously think about this for a second. It is generally considered that one of the absolute worst endings anything can do is the ''It was a dream'' or some variation of it. Things like Dallas and Roseanne got utterly destroyed by critics and fans for doing it. In Mass Effect 3 fans have had to come up with a theory that basically amounts to ''It was a dream'' to try and improve on the existing ending. Us fans are looking up and trying to reach the bottom of the barrel. We are envious of media where they get 'It was a dream', even with the plot holes and so forth indoctrination looks like a well thought out idea compared to what we got.
The whole indoctrination theory would mean the story doesn't have a proper ending and would also create some pretty massive plot holes with the existing facts stated about indoctrination. It would also be totally out of character for Shep.
Also Darc Requiem I LOVE your avatar! Perhaps the only good thing to come out of this whole thing are the Maurader Shields jokes.

why you say the mass effect ending is another case of " it was a dream " ? because of that last space winter scene?

I'm not saying the ending was a dream. The ending is just bad.
However the fan theory about it being an indoctrinated hallucination is just a variation of the ''It was a dream'' ending. Fans are actively hoping that instead of the dreadful ending we got that the ending is actually something that is often considered as being one of the worst ways to end something.
