As did I. Which is what I was going for with my "inverse finale". They did half of their job. They addressed, reasonably well (with aforementioned weaknesses like Sayid), the emotional elements of the series. But fell completely flat on addressing the other half other of the picture.

I would have been equally annoyed had the finale been ALL about how the island worked, leaving us with, "Oh, all that relationship stuff just kinda happened, the details don't really matter, it was all just kinda there to string you along until we made our point about what the island is." Even if that island explanation was really good, I'd have felt seriously cheated for having invested in those characters. Just as I currently feel seriously cheated for having invested in the island.
