"there should've been a closure to that story, if the writer doesnt mean to continue"

Perhaps there will be closure to that at a later time. Togashi is still working on the manga; he hasn't given up. So, for all we know, the Phantom Troupe will have a role in the upcoming arc and they'll be complete again (that is, with Chrollo). Then there will be an explanation of how it was or something.
