Why the very last chapter?!!!!

I wish JKR had ended Book 7 with the chapter before the last chapter. 
I'm referring to the Chapter which took us to twenty years later. I 
could have done without that chapter. 
Hogwart's is still there; but Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny are not 
at Hogwart's.  I hoped Harry would be Head Master. He is the greatest 
wizard alive; or at least I hoped he would have Hagrid's job. I 
thought Hermione could have replaced Prof. Mc Gonagol who in 20 years 
time might have resigned. But no..... we are left with Harry and 
Hermione waving to their children who go off to Hogwart's while they 
remain at home in suburbia. There is no meat in the chapter to tell 
us what they are doing with their lives besides raising children. 
Ron, who flew on a broom and in a flying car, now takes a driving 
test in Muggledom. Those magical people who lifted us from Muggledom 
are not living in Muggledom themselves. How depressing... not to 
mention boring.  
I think all of us wanted to be where the magic is ... at Hogwart's; 
but we are left with not even Harry or Hermione being still at 
Hogwart's.
It just seemed a flat ending ... a chapter thrown in at the very end 
which could easily have been eliminated. It was unimaginative I 
thought. Even the names of Harry's children was predictable (and 
didn't Ginny get to name any of their children after her own Mom and 
Dad.) I'd like to be left thinking they are still all there at 
Hogwart's whether they are Professors or even if Hermione or someone 
with her ability could be heading up the Mystery of Magic. I'd like 
to think they all lived at Hogwart's as Professor Trawlawny did or at 
least had houses/cottages on the grounds at Hogwart's. It was hard 
for all of us to leave Hogwart's; but worse knowing Harry, Hermione 
and Ron had also left!
The consolation is that Hogwart's is a state of consciousness, a 
state of mind and Heart and we can go there whenever we choose. And I 
will still remember Harry and Hermione at Hogwart's not living a 
muggle life in London. As JKR said, his scar no longer hurts... no, 
but I'll bet he is bored to death. Sorry. I just found that last 
chapter boring and bland.
