Conspiracy Theory
Ok, here's another weird coincidence. So Alec has been working on these crazy experimental implants (with Ellen) made to keep Ellen alive when she should be dead. During this time Miranda, Wilson, an...

All I know is that Cerberus would never support a mission that benefits aliens. If they were behind it, there would only be humans in all those Arks.
Doesn't mean that for example Ellen Ryder couldn't be ex-Cerberus of course...
I have seen this said so many times and it just isn't true.
Cerberus isn't against aliens. They are for humanity. There is a difference.
Cerberus is not against using aliens to move humanity forwards. That would include funding for the initiative to save the humans involved. Having aliens around in this case actually helps the humans involved because they each have their strengths. Cerberus specifically pointed Shepard to aliens who could help her un ME2. What they would do is make moves towards putting humanity on top.
So if we are talking about conspiracies... lets look at the fact that the benefactor seems to have been communicating with the Kett and that somehow its the human ark that crash landed on Meridian- putting humanity in charge of what's likely to be the most important tech in Andromeda.
Out of all the groups we know, Cerberus is the most likely to have manoovered the entire thing to put humanity infront while the other aliens are still around to help assist with their ongoing survival.
Sorry but you sound like the marketing department of Cerberus. That's splitting hairs on the level of justification. That's exactly how Cerberus would sell themselves. You are right that they are not against USING aliens if it furthers their purposes but they do have a live and let die policy more than anything. They clearly have a sense of arrogance where they feel that humans are above all other alien races and that is a type of rethoric we've seen in human history before.
Now, you do make a couple of interesting points outside of that and I'm trying to remember at which point we find out that the mysterious benefactor has been in contact with the Kett. Could you remind me of when that happened?
I still believe that the datapad is not pointing us to the actual "Benefactor" but simply relates to some Kett-born "benefactor". Poor writing as far as I perceive it.
Though sure - it makes for a good conspiracy theory.

Yeah, poor writing would be the most likely explanation, but I can see why people would be triggered by that word. I just don't think that BW's writing has that level of depth in their writing so I'm with you on that.
i've actually tried to keep an open mind about that datapad.
