That entire episode was fantastic (although I despise the trope that a man has to "Let Her Go" as if she needs his approval for anything).
They gave Barney and Robin these gorgeous moments, that episode, the beautiful speech from Barney in Splitsville, etc. They arguably had some of the most gorgeous, romantic moments of the entire series, and all of it for nothing in the end? For Barney to just go back to the way he was in Season 1?
