It's close enough that the message of "We've lost our individuality" is sent. Heck, just the fact that we have dead characters there, smiling and congratulating Shinji as they float in an empty blue void between Earth and Moon should be enough evidence that it's not meant to be a return to reality.

I understand the "It's a metaphor for returning to the real world" argument. I just don't think it's as compelling or that there's enough evidence supporting it.
