3. "But what if the Berserkers turn on us?"

Why would they? A.I.'s do what they're told, they don't randomly rebel like they do in bullshit fiction. They won't WANT to rebel. If one of them does, the others will have programming that will fix variation in the coding of their "children" berzerkers, a safety net against this happening.

4. "Other humans will become a threat too."

Depends. The most rational form of the Berserker is NOT the "randomly genocides all people", it's the creation of an interstellar "police", that will prevent anybody from firing or using relativistic spacecraft. They will NOT genocide aliens for no reason, they will incorporate them into the galactic community, allow them to go about their business etc. If they want to get off world, the Berserkers will provide the spacecraft to move them around, but it will not let anybody, human or alien, operate potentially dangerous relativistic spacecraft on their own. They only fight wars when necessary, and prefer to avoid bloodshed.
