Well... all things considered, the "Final Summoning" within Sin *is* the
last boss. Since you're protected by an infinite Auto-Life status throughout
the whole Aeon and Yevon battles, those are more like player-driven
cutscenes, really. Sure, I think anyone who played FFX would have liked a
bit more satisfaction from the very last "fight," but it was also symbolic:
once it was all said and done, he was nothing more than a withered old husk
that controlled all of Spira through tradition and fear rather than actual
might. Kind of like how the MCP was merely a wrinkled old man with a
typewriter in TRON ^_^

Just think of it this way: during the Aeon battles, he possesses every last
Aeon and forces them to fight you... but they want to end the cycle of Sin,
too, and refuse to actually kill you (symbolized by Auto-Life) until you can
set them free for good. Then, when all Aeons are gone, Sin is crumbling and
there's no place for him to run, there's nothing at all he can do. He has
been stripped of all his power and is as harmless and defenseless as an
insect (hence his appearance.) That's precisely why he needed Sin as his
armor and the Final Summoning as his puppet.
