I don't feel that's the case though. My interpretation was that the citadel was created to work with the crucible, the blue prints for the crucible were left for organics by that A.I. If they ever reached the point for the crucible and the citadel to be united then organics have evolved enough to the point that they can make a new solution. I personally believed that the idea was that you'd have to be united to hold off the reapers long enough and to build the crucible, if species evolved to the point of working together they're mature enough to create a new solution cause the old solution isn't valid (They've resolved chaos for life in the current galaxy, all that's left is to decide what to do with the reapers). Is there lazy writing behind my interpretation? Yes, but I feel that's what the lead writer was going for with the ending, though they just should have left a 4th ending where if you're really disjoint you don't even make it up to the Citadel.

That makes a lot of sense, while other cycles the races did not survive as they were not united (last cycle Protheans were on their own apparently). A sensible idea and one that makes more sense the 'just because'. Your lazy writing? Not really, it's an idea and one that makes sense, what seemed lazy is the writing for the writers in the game to not explain the last scene in more detail.

By lazy I mean like, if you didn't unite the galaxy you shouldn't even be able to make it to the catalyst. That would be the only complaint I would have (And I wouldn't even complain about it, but I can see why others would). Though this new DLC to "explain" the ending might make me not like the ending if my ideas aren't even remotely right or they can't make a better theory for canon.
