Again, if it is within the rules of professional racing for a first place driver to prevent the 2nd place driver behind them from passing, I don't see why it should be against the rules for the driver in last place to prevent someone from lapping them.
If it does not violate safety rules, then position should not matter.
That's the larger point which I didn't address. But you analogy isn't getting any better, since you're comparing football playoffs with a one-off auto race.

Making sense doesn't matter. Obviously. 'Cause for Brian football and auto racing should follow the same rules.
***Big Bri - why do you think the NFL teams generally don't play their 'stars' in pre-season games? Do you know?
