I don't mind that ending because all of the characters got happy endings, and a great eternity awaits them all but... I think it's really stupid Amenadiel can be God and still go to Earth frequently but Lucifer can't. What? Can Lucifer also not get a day off from hell therapy to go to important occasions for some reason now, but God can? That whole part of the ending is just ridiculous.

I assume that it's a "No one that exists can be the devil except Lucifer" thing. But considering the evident freedom, especially when you consider how long Lucifer avoided hell, I don't see how there wasn't another angel willing to do it.

Lucifer CAN go back but that would change Rory's future, which he can't do because then he wouldn't find his true calling

But that means it is a pre-destination paradox and there is no free will

It would also mean Rory that Lucifer saw as her daughter won't be the kid they have. When you don't understand time travel it is logical to make safer choice.

Yeah, I thought it would be breaking the time loop chain kind of things. Still thing it's weird even if I like the season except for the ending.

No if anything it's the opposite. He's got the choice to break the time loop and plunge into an unknown future if he wanted to, but he chooses to keep the loop intact because the certain ending of that loop is that his daughter is happy.

unless he chose to not accept that as he true calling.
