If you want to take it literally, that they were on an "island" with polar bears and smoke monsters, you can.
If want to believe that for a "nanosecond", all of this occurred so that Jack could find his way to "heaven", you can.
I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything.

I think you're cherry-picking what you want to hear from the Kimmel/Fox exchange. At the very beginning of the interview, Fox agreed that his character's life on the island was his real life, or something to that effect. The "nanosecond" comment was specifically about the "flash sideways" world. In other words, everything that happened in the "flash sideways" world of season 6 happened in a nanosecond as Jack's life left him in the bamboo grove.
I think your interpretation is fine, but I don't think it's supported by Fox's interpretation.
