xxxHOLiC 168 spoiler translation
The distortion that the time Shaoran rewound caused to be born was Watanuki!! Yuuko's words spin tragedy!
Isn't it that if he didn't exist, his parents would not have died?
That thought and that regret is coming back to Watanuki as a body that attracts spirits.
And when the true Shaoran took the copy Shaoran's bet that he would lose his life,
Watanuki, unconsciously, tried to protect the true Shaoran by erasing his own life.
That was the cause of his fall from the school building.
"I don't want Watanuki to disappear." Those who wish that are not just Maru and Moro.
Reacting to the feelings of those many people he has met until now,
Watanuki himself has changed enough to wish that "I want to be here."
Yuuko: "If that wish is strong enough, together with that child, the future will change too."
Now Watanuki being alone is what he himself has chosen.
If Shaoran is alone, he should be alone too.
But that memory was taken as a price, and does not remain.
As long as even a few memories remain, FWR's curse remains also.
In other words, all of his memories are not limited to true ones.
The feeling his parents entrusted to a false name. Without fail, it will go to meet you.
Sad, fleeting, and also full of unconscious courage: Watanuki's existence. Without fail, it will go to meet you, your parents' feeling, the truth!!
With your friends' feelings, the future will change. With everyone, certainly, you can be there!! Wait for next time!!

Still, what is making me so down is that it won't be the first time they would have killed 'important' characters in their mangas...criteria like 'they are their most popular couple' or 'it's thanks to CCS that their fame jumped to the top worldwide' or 'they said they would be happily together forever and could live hundreds of years if they wished to' or stuff like that would have been good enough for others mangakas, but knowing Clamp, they REALLY might just kill them off.
As for your suggestion: you have to consider that the Time was rewound only in Clow Country, to go back to a moment prior to the one the princess was cursed. The flow of Time wasn't disturbed in CCS|Holic, only the existence of Watanuki/disappearance of 'Syaoran' troubled everything and changed the future that should have been.
I also think that the general idea is that the distortion shall come to an end, and Watanuki BEING that distortion+wishing to disappear, he 'should' vanish together with it. All the efforts Yuuko/'Syaoran' had been doing was for him to keep on hanging on to life, even with the distortion gone.
About SxS, again, I'm not giving up on them because I find it weird that Clow Reed and Yuuko would wish for a future built on their *bloody* sacrifice. Still, Clamp made it a point since chapter1 that 'the parents' were dead and that 'reviving the dead' is impossible, it's troubling...
