[SPOILERS] Ending of GoT Series should've have some time-warping

Hi guys, first post here on GoT subreddit. I don't know if anyone's brought this up before, but I feel like the ending of GoT should have incorporated more of the muddy timeline dissonance that is shown by the Hodor episode and Aemon Targaryen's death.

To refresh your memory on the latter, Aemon is in his death bed, presumably hallucinating or having flashbacks of his childhood with his brother, Aegon, who he called "Egg."

"Egg! I dreamed that I was old." I believe were his final words.

Something about this and the Hodor episode really stuck with me, that there is something deeper and more mystical about the whole series. As we ramped up to Season 7, I was convinced that the ending would have something to do with more time-travel/warping. For him to have dreamed that he was old, when he was infact young, is very similar to Hodor having gone into the future and "holding that door". I really wished the show would have looped around and ended with something like this.

I apologize for not having constructed a full on detailed ending as I would see fit with these ideas, but looking to see if anyone else has considered or thought about this! Like some kind of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind ending where everyone was like WHOA!
