If you think the standings are irrelevant, I don't know what to think but that I'm arguing with someone who just wants to argue or doesn't understand the basics, so you aren't worth my time.

Go ahead and argue with that imaginary person or not, as you please.
I never said the standings were irrelevant. But the question of how to compensate for unequal numbers of games played in the in-season standings IS irrelevant to the question of who makes the playoffs when the season is over: because that situation is never permitted to occur at the end of the season.
