I seriously doubt they work all that background stuff out, especially how it relates to the Genophage, and then just let it die away.

It stands to reason that not every choice you make has galactic implications. But this being the final game gives them a little more freedom in what they can do.

I don't know, I can see them tying up plot threads as simply as possible with minimal real consequences because of the whole idea that "we cant punish people for making the wrong choice!". They certainly didn't do anything with them in the second game. I guess we'll see, I'm not totally convinced between this and Dragon Age that Bioware does the whole consequence thing with anything other than lip service. I'll be happy to be wrong as I felt pretty let down by the Mass Effect 2 stuff in that regard.
