What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

If we had gone with the option of helping them defeat the Final Days for good and allow their society to keep surviving then our ability to go back to Elpis and do fates would’ve made far more sense than it does now. After going back there to help them, we return to the tower and then, on our way out, we watch 12k years proceed in hyper speed until the new timeline is back up to speed parallel to ours. Thanks to the reverse-engineered powers of Omega we now have the ability to travel space-time and hop timelines, giving us access to Elpis as a zone that looks mildly different than it did during its msq arc. I feel it wouldn’t look too too different because 12k years isn’t that long for the ancients, maybe a few new structures here and there.

That would’ve also made for huge potential for an emotional moment with Emet when we contact his soul somehow. He’d get a chance to see his world, and a version of himself, all in one piece living a better future.
