Paul Walker had put so much of his time and energy into the F&F franchise by that point, and it comprised a huge chunk of his career, so I think it's fair to assume the F&F franchise was something he cared about and valued. Plus, it seems like the majority of the core cast really like each other and care about each other. So I found the ending really beautiful under the circumstances. It genuinely felt like a loving tribute to Paul Walker, while also being what it had to be for the franchise - a way to write out Paul's character.

Yeah, after the effort they put in to add him into unfilmed scenes using CGI and his actual brothers as stand-ins, it would be silly not to go the extra inch for a pleasant exit. Most movies would have rewritten it to have him die when the house blew up in the beginning, would have been way easier; but they wanted a cathartic end for their character/co-star.
