One, the idea that the Emperor would "release" humanity like that is ludicrous. The whole reason he conquered Terra and began the Greta Crusade was to unite us under His rule. He knew we would destroy ourselfs without a strong guiding hand. Even the Cabal, in the book Fulgrim, knew that that would happen.

And it is ridiculous to think that the Ethreals would be agents of the Emperor. The concepts of the GReater Good conflict too harshly with the Imperial Creed for that to happen.
