I've always looked at it like this..

when you lose in a SO or 3 on 3, you didnt lose the game. You lost the SO or the 3 on 3. In the actual game, you tied each other.

Therefor the whole 1 pt each for a tie and then an additional pt for the winner of the SO/3 on 3.

In the playoffs there are no ties as we all know, so it stays 5 on 5 until decided.

In that scope it makes perfect sense.
