Well, if you want to go to the trouble of finding the Monroe dialog you remember, I'd take a look at it. Otherwise, probably not.

It's fine ending it here. ETA: This is one of the few times someone has actually admitted to me that they have forgotten parts of a Grimm episode.

I worked three episodes at the beginning of s06, but otherwise the rest of it is pretty non-memorable to me.
Seasons 1-4 I remember well enough to find a scene without having to watch whole episodes. Seasons 5 and 6, not so much. WRT your other thoughts about Z and the staff, I lean toward Monroes's speculation that Z and the other place are analogous to the devil and hell in his family bible, which would suggest that Z ended up banished to the other place after losing an ancient war against others of his own kind. Possibly, the stick was a piece that got broken off the staff in the struggle. Or if the staff got even more splintered, maybe Z spent several centuries putting it back together only to discover that the last piece he needed didn't get sent to the other place with him. Maybe whoever banished him deliberately kept it back so that Z wouldn't be able to fully reassemble the staff and use it to return? That would make the cloth the equivalent of a warning label that said something like, "Danger: do not use when planets are aligned as shown in the figure."
I'm sure many viewers were rolling their eyes when Monroe was explaining that the other place was a plane of existence looked a lot like hell, even though it was not hell per se. I think he should have kept his mouth shut on that one.

The least of my issues with S06. It's an old theme that myth often has some basis in fact, so the idea that myths about a fallen angel, hell, etc. might be derived from actual events in antiquity would hardly be terribly "out there." Grimm had already cited many other historical myths as wesen based.

It wasn't based on any fact at all. Monroe just didn't know what he was talking about. As Eve and Rosalee didn't know any better, they let him talk about it.
But really, this has nothing to do with my thought that, had the series not dumbed down Zerstorer into a thug so he was on Nick's level, it could have been a much more satisfying conclusion to the series.

I thought the jump the shark element was Z killing everybody except Nick, Trubel and Diana. Would have preferred that the final battle be everyone instead of just two live grimms and two dead ones.

I actually thought Eve was Zerstorer's target, since she was the one he first appeared to. Eve had much more going for her as a bride rather than Diana.

That was my first thought, but as it turned out Z was only interested in Eve as a means to cross over.
