This, really. Going by it's position relative to the (presumed location of the) Source, in any other JRPG I'd say it was in a perfect position to become a clean-energy alternative to using the Source four all our aetheric needs, and the perfect tool to liberate humanity from Hydaelyn, Zodiark and their myopic bullcrap. "Don't drain the Lifestream, go solar!" In any other JRPG. I'm still unsure if they actually never considered the potential there, or they did all along and simply weren't expecting players to catch on that quickly.

Don't focus on the fact that you'll die, focus on living!", or the Allags attempt at saying "Forget Death! I'm an immortal Emperor now! Hahaha!", either way it's ironic given Xandes couldn't forget death, and that's what lead him to forming a contract with Cloud of Derpness...
As it is, the Allagans seem to be obsessed with death on either side. Team Xande wanted to end the world so that it couldn't go on without him (or something, his XIV version is closer to Kefka IMHO), and Team Archmagus decided that their lives only matter as one-off fuel for a Bigger Picture™ that goes on after they die. Neither is really all that great a way of looking at it, so I think your etymology is perfect for the place, regardless of where canon decides to go with it.
