Idunno, I like where the finish is. Adding a finish on this note as well as 01:18:505 (1) makes it sound really cool, adding more and more emphasis to the end of the song.
But as for why the bubble was unpopped.

we never allowed redundant uninherited timing point in any case whatever the purpose.
There hasn't really been a huge reason to do so, which is why it doesn't usually happen. However, most mappers/modders don't look at maps in nightcore. But it seems like a nice enough reason to change from the status quo if it's doing nothing but benefitting. If it was just there for the sake of being there, I would agree, it would be pointless, but resetting the stanzas so there isn't unwanted sounds seems like it has a huge point.
in fact, redundant uninherited timing point may cause a 1ms offset to all notes before.
a 1ms unsnapping that MAY happen isn't something hugely to worry about when adding timing points. Even with the timing of maps, there's a 10ms discrepency that'll make it ok, so I don't see how 1ms will make a huge difference. If it's really a huge issue of the probable offset change, maybe change to OD7 to give more leniency.
it is not a stanza reset case because it doesn't change the downbeat position
It still counts as a stanza reset because it resets the stanza numbers. The term you're looking for is a meter change / time signature change.
in osu gameplay, or in ranking criteria, or in music theory, the uninherited timing point is meaningless.
For the issue at hand, I don't really think we can be like "well in theory." If a composer were to not want a cymbal crash somewhere, he would solve the issue by not putting a cymbal crash there. However, we don't have control over Nightcore mod in terms like that. So to fix it, we have to do things like that. It wouldn't be done in a theory standpoint because there are other ways to fix it.
I'm literally seeing no downsides to this.
Unrelated, but:
Insane:
00:38:630 - There's a note missing here o-o. Like it's probably following the drums, but it just feels weird to have a note missing there
00:39:755 (1,2,1,2,1) - Why are there new combos on these? It should work just fine as one long combo. I understand maybe it's because of the timing changes, but it looks a bit odd to me.
