I think you're misunderstanding me, love. There is more than one way to leave the island. There has been an assumption circulating online that Locke also had to move the island, otherwise how could have left the island. But Richard has left the island. Others have left. My guess is they control moving through time and space, hence why Richard seems to be ageless....

I also assume that Locke learned the trick. And when he realized the island was in peril because some of the survivors, etc., left, he too left the island to find them and bring them back.
