As for the pep talk mc had with Javik i didnt think it was cringe or cliche, personally i think it fits him the most and it was proper to use it with Javik, Also personally i think its simply impossible for mc to work in the shadows as he said, once he reveal Javik, people will put their eyes on mc and realize all the things he did that you said he didnt hide, giving him way more relevance to stay in the shadows, even shepard herself will put mc as the tip of the spear simply because people will trust more on mc than her due to his legend at that moment.
