Probably more than reminding of any larger movie that may have retconned a previous ending, the idea would have drawn a lot of comparisons to old matinee serials. There would be memes of Kathy Bates in Misery yelling "That's not how it happened!! He didn't get out of the cock-a-doodie CAR!!"
It would have overshadowed the rest of the film too strongly and it's nice that the unnecessary story thing didn't happen.
