Change Your Mind is NOT a good series finale. Sure we wrapped up the Diamonds arc and the Rose Quartz dilemma, but the reason why it was so well-recieved was because it WASN'T the series finale. If it were the series finale, people would be complaining about how Steven got some new power, and how we got introduced to Pink Steven in the last minute without ever clarifying who or what it is.

Change Your Mind was amazing BECAUSE it WASN'T the series finale. Imagine if it actually were the series finale. People would complain about how we built up White Diamond for so long, only for her to turn good after a 2-minute talk with Steven, or even how we left things such as Jasper and Pink Pearl in the dark and decided to just end the series right then and there. It would definitely be seemed as "rushed" if it were the actual series finale.

Not to mention, we still have to deal with the aftermath of the Diamonds. Unlike other shows where they end after you "Defeat" the enemy, in this case, White Diamond, there isn't a specific individual enemy. Like Pearl mentioned before how everyone (fans) wants to blame problems on one individual (White Diamond) when it's more of a complex system that's to be blamed rather than an individual. The Diamonds changed, but we still have Homeworld gems like Morganites, Emeralds, and even Agates that probably enslaved Pearls and Rubies and likely won't want to accept a new "Equal" society.

And Steven Universe isn't like other shows. You can't compare something like Steven Universe, a show with actual plot that the creator has planned out, to something like The Simpsons or Spongebob which are plotless shows made to just entertain people. Just because the Diamond/Rose Quartz arc is resolved does not mean that there isn't an entirely new arc that isn't being planned. A story doesn't need to end when an arc is finished, and with the state of the current story, it would be wrong to end it here.
