It might, it could. But they didn't say.
It would be dishonest to make this claim. Like asking: “What does 6000+1000=?7000, right?” Then proving it, then saying they never said the answer is 7000.

final test happens "at the end of the 1000 years" not after the count past 1000 is ended.
The teaching is clearly after the 1000 years: Millenium is over, Jesus turns over the kingdom to God, God is all things to all, humans are perfect just like Adam, final test with perfect humans just like with perfect Adam and Eve. —That has always been the teaching.

there will no more mess to be dealt with.
That is a different issue to be dealt with because the Messianic Kingdom and the Millennium only address the consequences of the sin of Adam and Eve.
There seems to be no prophecy in the Scriptures that the ransom covers the fetuses of pregnant rebellious females after the 1000 years —if there is even procreation whatsoever during or after the 1000 years before this test.

the post-millennium period.
If I recall, JW teaching in the yellow Kingdom of 1000 years book published in the 1970s, the final test occurs after mankind becomes perfect, so that would be after the Millennium.

wt still clings to that fixed time frame.
Insight Book still shows 1975 as 6000 years after the creation of Adam and 4026 the year of Adam’s creation. However the belief that each creative yom is 7000 years in length has changed.

According to JW Bible chronology, Adam was created 6000 years before 1975 (4026 BCE). JW figured that the Millennium would begin soon after 1975 because according to JW doctrine, each Creative Day is 7000 year in length. And the 1000 year long Millennium adds up perfectly with the 6000 years ending in 1975.
And based on the belief that humanity is living during God’s Sabbath: (“And by the seventh day, God had completed the work that he had been doing, and he began to rest on the seventh day from all his work that he had been doing. 3 And God went on to bless the seventh day and to declare it sacred, for on it God has been resting from all the work that he has created, all that he purposed to make. COMPARE “For this reason the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things during the Sabbath. 17 But he answered them: “My Father has kept working until now, and I keep working.”’—Jesus was alluding to the ongoing Creative Sabbatical Day mentioned in Genesis.
Since the ongoing Creative Sabbath Day should end by 7000 years based on JW belief that it is 7000 years long, it was JW belief that 1000 years Millennium ( starting on 1975 ) after the 6000 year old Creative Sabbath would fit perfectly in time to fulfill God’s purpose for humanity: 6000+1000=7000= end of 7th Creative day. And at the end of day, God would declare the 7th Creative Day: GOOD.
i just heard this story from one of my relatives.
i'm leaving a lot of things out.. a jw couple had three kids and raised them in the religion.
the oldest one got disfellowshipped at 18 years of age because he committed fornication with a jw girl.
The problem is JW standards are hypocritical.
Again, that is subjective. You miss the point. Like everybody else JW have the legal right to do whatever they like as long as they aren’t breaking the law.
did you know that noah entered the ark in the end part of november and also that jesus' followers flead jerusalem around 25th of november 66ce?.
could it be that a significant group of jehovah's witnesses would begin to flee to the "wilderness" in the end of november?
revelation 12 speaks about a flight of a symbolic woman to a wilderness.
According to JW belief at this time, fleeing is symbolic meaning putting all faith in God for salvation and not depending on location so it wouldn’t matter what physical location a person may be at and would not need to flee to a different physical location to be saved by God.

Whether shunning a df son or daughter because of being df is morally good or bad is subjective. The issue is whether it is legal . It is legal for a parent to get a restraining order against a son. It is legal to separate families by putting someone in jail for a crime. It is also legal in some States to execute someone’s son or daughter for a crime that merits the death penalty. Is any of this good or bad depends on personal opinion. JW beliefs and practices are based on JW standards. Many people feel that Roe v. Wade is bad but it is the law of the land whether people feel it is morally wrong or not. JW also have the legal right as any other religious entity to practice their religion to df and shun someone.

"ex witnesses open attack on traumatizing shunning policy".
this follows on the successful court case in belgium against shunning.. since this is a criminal case, the wt leaders could end up in jail in the netherlands.. multiple articles tomorrow on this topic by renowned dutch newspaper trouw.. https://www.trouw.nl/a-b51d237a.
I think it`s a no go zone for the law to get involved in IMHO .
Depends on the country. Canada had that big case on JW DF that went all the way up to the Supreme Court. It could have gone either way. Any country can go the other way.
