The flashbacks don't matter. The "Sideways" flashes don't matter. All that matters is Jack's journey in "real time" from the moment his eyes were opened to the moment his eyes closed.
If the show had ended after two seasons, it would have ended the same exact way and been about the same exact thing. But, it went six seasons, which allowed the producers to flesh out other characters that helped Jack reach enlightenment, characters that existed only because Jack needed them to exist in order to "move on".

Simply saying "It was all about Jack" doesn't mean the writers get a free pass regarding their lazy storytelling and their inability to have meaningful conclusions to multiple major portions of the plot.
You loved it. We get it. Some of us just have higher standards than others.
