If everyone loses, it's as if no one does.

Sure... other than the teams that don't play at all and effectively win by dodging their CCG.

It's the ultimate, it's better to lose early argument. You can't lose very late, if you weren't good enough to play very late

I've never had a reason to gripe with with SOR as a primary metric for determining participation in a postseason tournament

I was most proud of voters in 2014, ranking the undefeated, defending national champion Florida St 3rd, because their SOR (ie - eye test) was shaky. Alabama was like a juggernaut and Marcus Mariota was doing magic.  
That might have been the peak of voting, actually.
