I felt a bit better about it when the following quest mentioned that after I'd made my decision, further excavations provided evidence to support the claim I'd chosen. So, it's not that I'm creating a false history for the Qitari, but rather that I have super intuition, able to piece together amazingly accurate predictions from small amounts of evidence. The history is real, but SE has given the player a choice as to WHICH history is real. Essentially, the player is being given a chance to help write the backstory for the Qitari.

I can understand this sitting wrong with some people. To lore-minded folks, this might look like the writers don't really care - that the "real, true" history of the Qitari is so unimportant that they're willing to let the players decide what they want. I don't see it that way, but I could see where others might.
