The dude that kept going around saying people aren't paying attention if they want an R3 is retarded. Who is he to say how much attention someone did or didn't pay because they want a story to continue. I myself believe that code geass as it is, ended perfectly and continuing it might ruin what R2 created. However, for the dude who went out and said he's dead obviously didn't understand the intention of the writer. The reason for what CC said at the very end was to create an open ended ending. For people who wanted him to be dead can believe he is. For the people who wants him to be alive could also do so.

Its the anime world, Geass power itself already defy logic and reality so seeing him get stab through the heart doesn't give any definitive answer to his faith. If the writer wanted they could answer away how he could be alive by saying that when he gained the second eye of Geass he also gained a hidden geass that was never revealed that saved his life. Of course thats all theories and speculations. Code Geass is good because Lelouch is blessed with amazing Strategic abilities, Who's to say that he didn't fool us all with a double bluff to keep himself alive while making even Suzaku believe he killed him.

Again I emphasize, the dude who claim to understand the complexity of the story is the one who didn't pick up how intelligent this series was because of the way it leaves doors open. It knows that instead of giving a definite answer that couldn't possibly fit everyones expectation, it had to leave it to every single person to create in their mind the absolute ending that they desire. After all the power of imagination is limitless.
