Symbolism.

The implication was JGL and BW were in a closed loop which inevitably led to the same outcomes, over and over. They all were. All it took was one looper to end the loop in reverse (kill himself while young to change the fate of everyone).

Plot holes still abound, but it was good.

Didn't Sid getting shot happen before JGL killed himself. Regardless of BW disappearing, that still happened.

Since the mother lived she was able to tend to this wound before it got infected, giving sid a synthetic jaw. Had he been left alone it would have gotten infected (remember when Emily Blunt was cleaning up JGL's wounds?). The whole point of the movie was that maternal care is needed.
