Screw it, I'll be a rebel, Railroad. Honestly, I don't see how you can have characters such as Danse and Valentine, and still believe synths aren't free thinking and should all be destroyed? Yes, the Institute's bad, but I'm going to explain the Brotherhood of Steel is just as bad from my point of view. I know the Brotherhood believes that synths are a threat to mankind, but which situation would a new race of sentient beings most likely turn against mankind over? Protecting and treating them like human beings,(also consider Danse expressed human emotions without even knowing he was a synth) slavery but security under the institute, or being threatened with genocide for their very existence? I beg to question the logic of the Brotherhood as well. If they don't think humanity can be trusted with advanced technology, what makes them trustworthy to hoard it all? An independent army that answers to no one, claiming to hoard dangerous technology from everyone so humanity may not use it again, while having a war agenda using said technology? Yep, definitely not suspicious or corrupt in any way.
