Was anyone else confused about the Stargate Universe finale?

The way they talked, the final ten episodes were planned to wrap things up and end the series, but last night's ending looked more like a cliff hanger than anything else. Maybe they are hoping some other network will be enticed by all the unanswered questions and plot holes: Why make a crew member turn blind in the second to the last episode? What is supposed to happen after the three years in Stasis? Why didn't they just wrap up the story with a believable happy ending? At least it wasn't as dreadful as LOST!
