For things to be completely coherent and understandable for the majority of society, they need to be somewhat predictable and uncreative so that they mirror what members of the public have seen before and can therefore understand.

Lost was always a show that raised questions, made people talk, created crazy fan groups online and forums where people gather and discuss theories... I think it would've been somewhat disappointing if the conclusion of the show didn't continue that nature of questioning, thinking, and discussing among fans. I think the show was relatively coherent if people actually watched every episode... it left a lot of things open but that doesn't mean that it is incoherent.

I like that even after the finale people are still discussing, theorising, and addressing ideas that were left open.
