Yes, a wise choice. If you dislike the ending, you can just don’t see it as a canon. That’s your right and your freedom, which others should not interfere.
Those who are satisfied with it see it as a canon; those who aren’t do not. All we have to do is respect different voices.
For me, there is no such a canon episode as S9E26; Others hold different opinions. Even though I do not approve them, I respect their opinions and have never tried to force them.
