Simple and fascinating. If you've ever complained about an ambiguous ending, read this. This is an open-ended conclusion done right.
This shows that an ambiguous ending shouldn't be a story unfinished. This is a story about a question, a question about human nature. What better way to pose a question, than to leave it unanswered?
