I dont think anyone is disputing that it was rushed, they more or less said so in the Behind the Scenes on the final season.
People are just upset at 'why' they rushed it when they had seemingly infinite resources available too them, some actors probably wanted to continue, some probably didnt, same with crew and production team, but theres one caveat to those 'seemingly infinite resources.'
Time.
They already used a ton of it. The show has been on for 10 years and even as they mentioned in the Behind the Scenes special was that they were effectively making feature films for television on a television schedule and (more or less) television budget.
Thats hard!
And obviously Benioff and Weiss had the most incentive to wrap this up quickly to collect their Disney paycheques and start work on an iconic film franchise.
So yeah, they rushed it. I still really liked it, I thought it was great TV and I like the post-episode discussion, but yeah, they rushed it and as fans who want more we're intrinsically going to be critical of that.
