MEA: Recruiting and Dismissing Crew Members
I wish Mass Effect would give us the option of selecting our crew members, instead of having a preset crew. I would love to be able to throw Cora out of the airlock, with all of her need a plan BS. ...

While I can see this being cool with having an extra team member or three for variety, the unique crew members would offer unique dialogue. Just like you said, you'd end up using a "default" for all Exiles, Angara, etc etc. With the amount of interaction that typically happens between crew members while you run around and doing quest, you'd have to REALLY limit it for these extras...which would mean repeated dialogue that gets old quick...and honestly? We get plenty of that already when trying to talk to our current crew members in hope they have something insightful to say.
Although....Cora does get on my nerves sometimes, so I agree with you there. XD Its like she wants to be like Miranda, but she forgot to read her manual.
