The reason I want an earlier lock in point for romance options, is because I've done almost everything else in the game except the final mission and would miss out on romance dialogue due me having almost nothing left to do in the game after I get round to the final mission.
Which must have suprised the dev team because Meridian is still mentioned during the 100% viability cutscene where Habitat 7 is renamed Ryder 1 as being one of the locations who voted on the name change, even if you haven't actually been to Meridian or even found the location of Meridian on the Archon's Flagship.
