I thought it was great *spoilers*

Exactly this. It was about Jimmy choosing, for once and when it really mattered, the righteous path, and finally reflecting on what he had done and all the choices he had made. All confirmed when he said at the end that he was Jimmy, not Saul. Even though he could have been Saul and he had, as ever, kind of won by putting the FBI/DEA so far on the back foot with another scam.

The episode built this up really well, with the three cut backs to past scenes (the desert hike, the Walt evac wait, the visit to Chuck). In all three of those Jimmy was hit with some pretty striking personal criticism that he just wasn't ready to face - and each time he just basically hid from it. It was only right at the end, in almost the last scene, that he decided not to be Saul. And he did it because at that point all that really mattered to him was what Kim thought of him, and maybe what Chuck would think of him.
