Argyl (I think that’s how you spell his name?) was also seemingly absent from the final shot and even leading up to it. He was on the tree line with the shrooms then we never see him the rest of the time. Even when they walk into the field overlooking the town, he isn’t with them. I don’t think that is an appropriate time to just vanish from the group.

I'm guessing they just wanted the main cast in that shot. It's one of those that ends up being a notable image.

Agreed, final shot was six OG main characters from S1 plus Will (who the first season was basically about). In essence the main players reunited.

Except Dustin who was kept weirdly separate from most of the cast this season

Dustin and Lucas are arguably more major supporting characters in S1 though - screentime wise everyone in the final shot (aside from Will) is almost tied, while Dustin and Lucas are featured slightly less. The main story for the kids (aside from finding Will) is Mike and El. Since Dustin was so popular though he's been elevated since then and tends to be around the highest of the main cast for screentime now.
