Exactly. She's tough as nails and a survivor by nature. If Locke can come back from a chest wound on a pile of corpses, I'll bet on the same for Rousseau. She certainly deserves a better send off than this episode.

If so, that makes for a bit of a letdown, if you ask me.
I want there to be scientific reasons explaining all of the anomalies that have happened over the seasons.
Not some deus ex machina.

I don't think the writers are going down that magic road, but all consuming scientific explanations can be just as underwhelming. Let's say that all of the Island's effects are due to Hallucinagenic gasses emitted from a seismic rupture*. Booorring.
It's more fun if it's a little more open ended. Personally I'm hoping for a crashed and buried spaceship from the future.
