1. Humans accepted into the Covenant.
2. Covenant find forerunner artifacts.
3. Human accidentally activates forerunner artifact. Only person/race that seems to be able to.
4. Suspicion arises that humanity may of been touched by the forerunners sometime in the past or that they are the inheritors of the forerunners.
5. Prophets, in fear of losing their power, go to war with the human race.
6. Human-Covenant war begins.
Think again. If humanity is accepted into the Covenant, and does activate Forerunner tech in front of other Covenant members, the resulting fallout when the Prophets try and kick the Humans out/annihilate them will tear the Covenant asunder and cause the Prophets to be wiped out by the Sangheili and the other Covenant races.
Think of it in real life. A group of people are accepted into a cult/society. In the beginning, nothing more is thought of them. All of a sudden, they start bringing massive development levels to said society/do miraculous acts that DIRECTLY coincide with the cult's religion. The power-mongering person in charge gets jealous and orders the newcomers to be wiped out.
The society/cult breaks apart and dissolves into civil war.
