Looking at the tone of my previous posts, it looks like I don't like ME1.

This is not the case. ME1 is really a very good game, even great. I enjoyed it immensely, and it's one of my favorite RPGs in a long time.

But the perspective of time and superior sequels really highlights the way in which the game fell short, and the idyllic way that a lot of people see the game doesn't make a ton of sense to me

My feelings exactly. I still have fond memories of it, but comparing it to the sequels, Jesus fuck, it isn't even close. I get some of the angst as it pertains to the "it's not an RPG anymore!" complaint, but only if your definition of RPG is any game with a cumbersome inventory system, but the rest is completely lost on me.
