The problem that we have with the system now as is (as likely to occur as the problem you are worrying about) is that one team could win every regular season game they play and every other team could have the exact same win loss record as the other teams and thus only win, what, half their games. Then a team with only 10 wins (same as the team that came last) could go on to win the comp - against the team that won all their games. So really the present system is like a bomb waiting to explode. That so unfair. Lets go to minor premiers takes all EPL style.
Except that, wait, finals rate well and draw good crowds....so stuff that. And stuff your hypothetic fear mongering. There may be good arguments against going to conferences but yours isn't one of them.
You do understand if that were to occur no team with a better record misses the final, plus they won 50% of their games, we occasionally have that now. The problem with divisions is it is possible for a team with a far inferior record to make the finals. All teams finish on 10 wins and some making it and some missing out is not the same as a team on 10 wins missing the finals and a team on 3 making it. which is possible under the system you are pushing for.
