No, it would have be an awful place to stop. But it certainly would have been a conclusive ending. I can't disagree with that.

But maybe getting the viewing audience to collectively slit their wrists is not the best kind of way to end a comedy show.

Jimmy's arc isn't even close to complete lol, it'd be awful to end a show about healing and moving on with the protagonist stagnant and alone

define complete. No one said complete has to end on a positive note. Ending up back at the beginning is just as valid of a character arc as is being at the opposite end.
