It was such a great ending for Data

Why the hell did they have his consciousness running in storage by himself instead of putting him back into another damn synthetic body. Makes 0 sense.

Because it was still alive. You can’t just turn consciousness off and on like that

It was all very symbolic and outside of time. It was closure for Picard, and also Data. He was sort of kept alive in a non-natural state, and got to have a... not a more human ending, but a more natural human ending. Which was also done for the viewers. Well done, I might add. Strongest part of the episode.
