I think it's safe to say that if the top four finishers in points are the top four in W-L record, which is how it stands now, the "integrity" (and I'm using that term very loosely, for lack of a better one) of the playoffs, and the league as a whole, is maintained.
But if someone finishes in the top four in scoring and doesn't make the playoffs, and their high point total is not attributable to one or two weeks where they scored way above their norm, then I think it's safe to say that they didn't make the playoffs because of the quirks in the schedule.
