No, that’s my interpretation. In order to make Twilight immortal, the Princesses had to give up their own immortality. Twilight will do the same someday.
Aside from it not being my favored headcanon, the thing I’d have questions about is, Celestia and Luna were most assuredly in their physical primes last time we saw them, so why would they suddenly be dead after the timeskip?
Extremely funny, well-done and heartwarming episode…though I do find it a rather funny bit of dramatic irony [in hindsight] that this an episode where Discord fucks up…
…before we find out that he done fucked up even worse. xD

They might as well have put that on a card and aired it for 22 minutes instead of a regular episode. And some people still would have defended it to death, I suppose.

It’s Jim Miller’s hallmark - produce bad and unsatisfying content, and when fans are predictably unsatisfied don’t answer any of their questions. Instead, either lie or say “you’ll have to figure that one out yourselves! ;)” in response.
