In other words, he always had deep feelings for her but tried to sever them but at the end he couldn't and gave in to them.

Well even if he did love her, it doesnt make sense that sakura was STILL in love with him after all that he did to her. If sasuke really did love her, he wouldn't have tried to kill her. Remember around episode 220 sakura finds sasuke and shes standing behind him with a kunai? He immediately did chidori and kakashi said " Wow! that chidori power was really high. Did he really mean to kill her?" that means that he didn't actually have "deep" feelings for her. And even if he did, showing them together shows that what he did to her in the past DOESN'T matter at all.
