Comstock's reasons for keeping Elizabeth locked up are: A He does not want Booker getting to her B He is preparing her to take over as his heir So back to the ending we learn that Booker is just a pawn in a never ending cycle that is slightly different each time, hence why they say "Constants and variables". Also Elizabeth is never born to Comstock Booker, him becoming Comstock stops Elizabeth from being born in his universe, which is why he has to kidnap her from our Booker.
I'm kind of interested in the fact that they say Elizabeth looks like Lady Comstock. Does this mean that Booker met her alternate in HIS universe, and if so, what happened to her? The problem I have with this ending like all issues with parallel universes : why does killing current timeline Booker kill all parallel Bookers?

This is seen in many of Fink's blueprints concerning Songbird and Songbird's reaction to water , seen the first time he attacks you when you and Elizabeth crash into Battleship Bay. Another reason is to tie Columbia and Rapture thematically. Rapture, like Columbia, is very much a dystopia, and the game BioShock holds many similarities with BioShock Infinite.
This suggests that Rapture is an alternate dimension of Columbia. This is further exemplified when Elizabeth mentions 'There's always a lighthouse, there's always a city, there's always a man"' pointing to the main thematic similarities between both cities, and the overarching themes of the series and possible future iterations of the series.
I have seen the seeds of fire that will prepare the Sodom below for the coming of the Lord. But Elizabeth shall sow those seeds, not I. I will fall before the job is done The Lord is calling me home. I feel His love in every tumor, because they are the train which takes me to his station.
