I don't know if this has been said because I cant follow all ofthe forerunner talk but this is also somewhat based on what someone else said in theory. So here it is: The theory that this is based on is that the Forerunner may have been like a peaceful covenant, a union of inter-stellar species, so perhaps, just perhaps maybe, the human race was part of this, and for whatever reason broke away, and maybe the covenant are whats left of the Forerunner after we left, and then that would then explain why the covenant want to wipe us out, because we broke away from the "Forerunner Union" or whatever you want to call it, and maybe then because the covenants tech is just forerunner tech reused, then maybe their tech could only advance farther from help with the human race, and once we broke away, they became incapable of developing new tech. but this theory is probably easily dis-proveable, but i'm just pitching ideas.
