I think just because it was clearly set up as a scene you would learn more about and the writers kept going on about how they had a plan for who it was, don't worry it's coming! Then the final season rolled around and the scene was gone and the new story was they couldn't find an organic way to fit it into the storyline, but if they knew who it was- how could it not fit? For me it's just the easiest example of how the final season was sloppier than other ones.
Yeah to me that was just it (though I can't speak for others). Also they would say things like, "we know who it was." Then would just be quiet. Argh! I didn't really care who was in there, it's just if you DO something like that you think you have a follow through plan- even if it's just "they were people from the future of the Island." Like I just read how at the end of season 5, they were sure which direction they would go after detonating the bomb. That "BLOWS" my mind, because I guess I don't work like that. You might not know all the deets, but you think you would know generally what the outcome of something like that was! I think this sort of thing may have lent to the uneven nature of the season- not knowing what they were setting up, but who knows.

IA about the final season. There are some really great individual episodes, but as a whole it was sloppy - some parts too rushed, some parts too slow.
