It would really be stupid to finish the 1500 hours and leaving the country.
Why?
The purpose is to provide you with flight training and additional experience which you will gain as a flight instructor, sounds like a job to meZ
It gets you 1250-1300 hrs more then you would get while training in Europe.
There is no arrangement for US flight students to train in Europa then gain 1300 hrs of additional experience so maybe you need to tone it down with the arrogance and entitlement a little bit.
It’s an option for flight training as is Canada, South Africa and Poland.
So if you have any better ideas by all means share them here.

so you'd recommend me rather do the flight school here in Europe somewhere and later convert maybe?
No.
