The thing about the ending is, I don't think it's the ripple killing them. I think the fact that they keep saying x "never even saw what killed them" is implying that the either whatever's actually causing the "disintegration" effect or something afterwards is being drawn to the energy backlash and gobbling the ships up. I mean, this is entirely my interpretation, but I can't shake it from my mind.

Yeah, my theory is that the effect they experience is a safety mechanism of some sort that pulls them out of our physical space into whatever funky space the gate builders used. They'd be safely held there until the congestion lowered.

Except, something killed the gate builders and did so in that funky space. So, instead of being held safely they get gobbled up by whatever killed the gate builders.
