I can't help but speculate about the black hole in the centre of Heleus.
Could it form the basis of transportation to other parts of Andromeda, could it be a means by which the scourge is coming to the galaxy, etc.
It seems so odd to have an entire section of the galaxy around that black hole.
Thoughts?

This. I am really surprised none of the story utilizes this giant black hole at all. There are way too many mysteries/ unanswered questions after the ending

Ok I am not a space expert but my understanding is that the Andromeda Galaxy is MUCH larger then the Milk Way, like the difference between New York and Fargo. With Galaxy's that large it is not uncommon to have multiple black holes and not all at the center. It may have formed when two Galaxy's merge.
Also from what I understand you do NOT want to get anywhere near one, even as you get close strange things start to happen to matter, time stops functioning correctly all kinds of bizarre things that pretty much ignore most physic rules.
I sure hope Bioware doesn't plan on using it in some story line, you want space magic that would be the ultimate space magic.

In real life, our own Andromeda galaxy has many black holes. Could be just keeping it real and adding a hidden plot to it, or just background stuff. What did the scan say again?

I love space magic and I don't understand physics: I want a journey to the center of the black hole. Found Christopher Nolan's BSN account

Wishy-washy time travel here we come! I can save my mom! And say hi to Shepard... Maybe romance my Shepard... is that weird?

As someone who likes astronomy, that black hole really bugs me. It is way too big. It's bigger than multiple star systems, yet the info on it talks about how it is only 12 solar masses. It should be the size of a tiny country at max.

It should be the size of a planet at max. Only 12 solar masses? Wow that is surprisingly small. The event horizon radius of a black hole of that size is only ~30km and the light sphere surrounding it would be only ~50km. It's definitely way too small. (Of course the whole thing might not be drawn to scale.)

The Black Hole is clearly there to send the AI 1200 years into the past and then on a 600 year journey back to the Milky Way. They will arrive just in time to prevent Shepard from the RGB choices by using SAM to take control of the Catalyst. The Reapers are still beaten, Shepard lives on, and BioWare undoes the ending so many hate. ME5(6?) takes place in the Milky Way post-Reaper War and Ryder explores those areas of the galaxy beyond the mass relays.

Could it form the basis of transportation to other parts of Andromeda, could it be a means by which the scourge is coming to the galaxy, etc. The Scourge is revealed to be a Dark Energy weapon utilized by whoever was opposing the Jardaan at the time. Dark Energy that was weaponized and somehow designed to target Jardaan Technology specifically. During the Khi Tasira mission your team notices Scourge coming directly out of what appeared to be damage from explosions, hinting toward the Scourge being some kind of Dark Energy warhead.
