I honestly believe they originally had about two seasons worth of material and it focussed primarily on Jack and his series of tests and faith. When the show became wildly popular they fed into the minutia without any idea how they would actually provide answers to all the mysteries they created - Walt - who? Oh yeah, the kid the others wanted really bad, the kid who had mysterious powers and was locked in room 23 - forget he ever existed. The rabbits with numbers who would magically recreate, what happened to them? Fertility quesions? Aaron?? The numbers - "Jacob has a thing for numbers". That's an answer?

Furthermore, you're given six years to very important questions (fertility, the fate of Walt & Aaron, etc.) but those questions are answered
off screen?
I don't buy it.
