You really need to think about what this beings motivations are, and dont say "its motivations are beyond our understand, as it is beyond our understanding" now THAT is a cop out, and poor science fiction writing at its worst.

The way I figure it, it wants something out of humanity... and it got this thing out of the vex, and the fallen, and the cabal, and the hive... and that is why they are all here.

Or perhaps the various races were all ditched by the traveler when it got what it wanted... just packed up and left, uncaring, as if these races are beneath its notice and care and have always been.

I get the feeling that the Traveler came to humanity because it was looking for an army to fight the Darkness. I'm not even going to speculate on your other ideas--haven't seen enough of the game yet to form an educated opinion. Although I think the Hive have always been evil.
