Can we say that the brilliance of this movie is that there are soo many ways you can interpret it that it allows the viewer to decide for the first time how the story ends? If that's not a great parting gift i don't know what is.

A lot of people say it should have cut to black with just Alfred nodding, but I disagree. Bruce's story ending has to be definitive. It had to end, no stones unturned. Bu with Blake, thats where it makes sense to throw in some ambiguity. My 2 cents.

I thought so too.

Except that Bruce's arc is not open for interpretation. Bruce dying would mean he committed suicide. The autopilot was fixed, and yet he chose to kill himself anyway.

...he survived

You are kidding, right.

This isn't Inception . Bruce clearly survived .
Would people even be questioning this if Nolan never made Inception? No .

The new Bat signal and the auto pilot being fixed clearly . Nevermind Bruce nods to Alfred[. The whole film hinted at Bruce and Selena both looking to start over and they got their wish

Exactly.

As I have said I

would have liked a more emotional death for Bane. after he takes off his mask and reveals himself to be Talia's protector, she stabs Bruce and tells him her true identity.
