Okay okay hear me out, I have not read one bit of the comics but I remember from mass effect one vigil talked about how a handful of scientists went to the citadel, and it makes me wonder if they somehow made it to Andromeda, obviously the kett exault and reuse genes from the other species (hmm sounds familiar) but I totally agree. A lot of people don’t wanna connect Andromeda and the original trilogy, and some people just blame it on * rewriting and lazy animators, but I really do believe there are hints that connect the Milky Way and Andromeda in more than just the initiative.
That would be one way to connect the dots. Since, according to Vigil, there were not enough scientists for a viable population, they could have used genetic engineering and became Kett. Or even a split to Kett and Jardeen.
