To defend Lindelof, I am pretty sure the source material never really explains it either. This might be right in his wheelhouse. However, my big problem with him is he likes to build up, then have no payoff. He could add more to it and still not have it be satisfying.
How the guy who wrote for Nash Bridges became the go to science fiction writer in Hollywood is beyond me.
