As far as I can tell, there is nothing wrong. What you see is the final unload of the filament, so the last filament does not solidify in the nozzle after the print terminates.

I agree. Before the filament is pulled out, the tip end is formed by first quickly extruding the molten material from the nozzle. That's the threads hanging in the air that you are objecting to. This kind of behavior is in Slic3r since the early Multi Material Upgrade version 1 release.

Is this explanation satisfactory? Can we close this issue?

sounds reasonable to me. I was just confused when I saw extrusion in mid air. This issue can be closed.
