That would've been a more interesting way to end the series, by having Sheldon distance himself from everyone. Perfect timing, since the end of the 13th season would've coincided with the start of the pandemic, thus no need for masks or production shut down, because that season would've been successfully completed just in time for social distancing upon hiatus. Missed opportunity, which we can't blame Jim for, since he's not a psychic. But imagine the publicity if TBBT ended in 2020, since the most vital character is a germaphobe. On top of that, the headlines would be out of this world – "It all ENDED with a big bang!" I am also referring to the fact that the series finale could've been the 300th episode, thanks to the final season possibly being reduced to 21 episodes instead of 24, in the event that COVID affected production to the point where the 13th season ended just a tad prematurely: 21 episodes instead of 24. 279 (all 12 seasons) plus 21 equals 300.
On another note, I'm a little disappointed that Amy never said "That's my spot" during coitus. Another missed opportunity, but a great series nonetheless.
