I can´t say I´m ecsttic, but I thought putting Lucifer back in the cage would be better for the show  in the long run than killing him. If he´s in the cage, he could always be available  to the writers as a villain for some episodes each season as a behind-the-scenes troublemaker: he could manipulate demons / people or try to make deals to get out or whatever. Sort of a go-to villlain that guest stars each season.
