Nope - after they were cancelled, they were allowed to go back and film some additional scenes to add to the end of the finale to give it some closure.
I really found the coda/epilogue to be distracting. The end of the main story ended in a good place, with Burnham and Booker heading off on their next adventure. And then suddenly we’re getting this long drawn-out “and then later after many adventures they… did something useless we can’t explain but at least they saw their old friends again the end” just really took the wind out of it.
coda? is that a reference to the Star Trek Coda book series?

I wouldn’t say I found it distracting, if only because I knew it was coming, but I can definitely see the argument that it wasn’ t necessary.
I have to tell myself that Star Trek Picard is a Star Trek novel. for some reason my brain lets them get away with a lot more if I have that aspect
