It likely has more to do with Gambling and the ramifications with the Point Spread then anything having to do with the actual game.
I think Points or a point differential, could also be used a some sort of a tiebreaker down the line, but the likelihood of that ever coming into play is almost zero.
I agree, they should just let them walk off the field, if the extra point has nothing to do with the outcome of the game................gamblers be damned.
