It is so damn special to me when a filmmaker knows how to properly tell a story through visuals and the actor's performances rather than telling like you said. It is always nice when the filmmaker actually respects the audience not to explain everything that is happening

Yeah they could have easily had a scene at end where we actually see him kill himself and would've been effective but they done it in a super creative and more heartbreaking way.

reminds me of a movie that I didn't love, but the ending was so damn perfect, where instead of showing a character committing suicide in his car in the garage, all we hear is the sound of his car horn not turning off. with the use of sound, and character reactions, we know that by running the car in his garage his head rests on the horn because he has killed himself. I feel like it is more shocking when you don't see a suicide, and only hear the sounds, and the character's reaction to the aftermath

Sounds similar to the ending of >!Chinatown!<, one of the most masterful scenes in cinema.
