Like I said, the only clue we really got was when the series finale trailer announced "The End of All Worlds is Coming." I know you thought they were just trying to say something catchy, but we can also take it literally and make our best guess, even if it isn't easy with the little they gave us to work with.
I don't know if almost all the other worlds would be better candidates than Juliana's timeline, since we saw other timelines where Joe executed Frank with a shot in the head and where Joe shot Juliana in the cave. Maybe it's just that God's merged the worlds and cleaned everything up, so when they go back out there all that's left are the people who'd get along and be kind to each other, along with a peaceful world that would naturally happen with all the powermongers gone. The fact that Hawthorne Abendsen, who seemed to know he had some kind of spiritual purpose, was still alive and happily expecting to see his wife alive somewhere, could be a sign that they've won the big spiritual battle they were fighting and we're free to imagine the best outcome, as vague and open-ended as the ending was. In that case, it would be nice if God would just let people know that's what happened, so they don't have to walk around in a daze wondering and worried there might still be Nazis or other sociopaths amidst them.
Maybe the only way it would make sense that all the parallel worlds suddenly ended is if God or the Creator or whoever created the universe grew so disgusted with what was going on in all the worlds and the arrogance of the Nazis' plans to invade other ones that he shut the whole thing down to start fresh and only kept his favorite humans alive to populate the new world.
The portal scene on its own is confusing, but the final season trailer declares "The end of all worlds is coming," so I assume we're to conclude that the closing of the portal brings about the end of all the parallel worlds. And then I got the feeling when Hawthorne Abendsen's eyes lit up that he expected to find Caroline alive somewhere, meaning that he somehow knew the worlds had merged into a happy peaceful whole where everyone who died is alive again. It was strange how dazed everyone seemed though, because Juliana's visions made it seem like the people in the distance were approaching with a very specific purpose.
"Most likely one of the others in attendance would have quickly slit his throat and then asked him if he saw that future as well."
This should have been how it ended. It actually would have been truer to the rest of the show.
lol. this is so true if you think about it.
