Too bad we can't have this conversation face to face, I am losing some of your points, as I see it, "it is a lose and go home", starts at the conference level, essentially these are mini playoffs if you will. There is no second bite at the apple, one and done or go on.
No so?

Basically I see the conference championships as the quarter-finals. If you lose your conference championship game, you do not advance to the playoffs.
Ultimately try to think of the easiest, most elementary structure for a playoff, with no provisions, special rules, subjective voting, byes, or mulligans, and you will see the best system.
8 champions, 7 games, winner take all in a tournament of champions.
The simpler it is, the less room there is for bias and for people to gripe about the outcome.
