Think about it, the only reason to have excessive mystery about the nature of the traveler, where it came from, what it is, what happened to it... Is if they are going to do some kind of twist or reveal.

and a twist or reveal is usually meant to subvert your expectations on something. Literally all we know about the traveler is how awesome it was, how glorious and benevolent it was, and how much it helped humanity. Well, I'm sure we can subvert the whole "secret villain reveal" trope in favour of something more realistic and/or favourable. What, I don't know for sure. I DO know that I'd prefer that something unexpected and NOT evil is revealed about the Traveler. Who knows? Maybe we won't even find out the full secrets about it in the first Destiny game.

I have a really complex theory, but I wont share it because I think its a nice story-telling possibility and if it reaches bungies ears I dont want a delay because they have to change it.

And like I said... What expectations about the traveler, are there to subvert.... other than the fact its this benevolent godlike being. Watch an old twilight zone episode... any time something seems great.... its not.
