Aang is sitting alone and wearing the air nomads clothes, his culture clothes, a necklace similar to GYATSO's necklace. I can't even imagine the emptiness and sadness he was feeling here
There are no airbenders in the crowd
All nation gathered..... except the air nomads.
No one else in the crowd wearing orange or yellow.
Aang won the war, but his people are still gone.
Yes, he has the Gaang, he has Katara, he has Momo and Appa. But he's still the last airbender.

It became common knowledge that ancient societies cared for the disabled & were more sensitive than we assumed, and people overcorrected from the grim, primitive portrayal of old into an assumption that in ancient times people were peaceful until something corrupted them. And now others are overcorrecting back in the opposite direction - no, they weren't even slightly peaceful, they were ghouls bashing in heads with rocks. When the truth is probably that they cared for their sick and disabled, and bashed in other people's heads with rocks.
Societies can have advanced, positive aspects and horrible ones. Example: all of them
