This troper stands by his original claim: the Vasari are running from something with powers beyond imagination something having more in common with a black hole, supernova, or pulsar than a simple armada of warships. The Vasari are up against a big unknown, something that violates their views on reality so totally that it drives them mad. Yes Reapers are big, bad, and powerful, but they are still perfectly acceptable within a reality filled with space battleships. The Reapers barely manage a collective BOSD among the Citadel races, coming nowhere near mind rape territory. A reaction to them would be more along the lines of "oh shit, we're f***ed" as apposed to clawing one's eyes out. Anyway, the Reapers are basically a race of ancient sentient capital ships, little more. They've probably already figured out how to root out that nasty "destroy all life" bug. If we humans who haven't even begun to master nanotech can see its possible dangers, so can the Vasari. Getting bit in the ass by it wouldn't drive anyone insane, though it might be slightly surprising at first. The Vasari use nanotechnology all the time. Whatever the Vasari are running from ain't pretty and is far more dangerous than anything you or I could fathom. Think less Cylons/Geth and more along the lines of Cthulhu and the Elder Gods.
Only a single Vasari warship ever survived contact with whatever this enemy is, with the ship's crew was driven made with fear.
