I played outdoor/indoor from 5 to 18, and then organized indoor until I was 25. You're correct on almost all counts, especially the point about "you probably won't understand unless you played".
But PKs are the worst. Much worse than the NFL or college football overtimes. In the latter two, the game is still decided by the entire team playing the same way they played the entire game, except with "sudden death" rules and different field positions. Not true with PKs. It's a crapshoot.
I like Burger's idea: allow for many more subs in overtime, or even during regulation. Let players who have come out come back in.
I'd rather see a best-of-three rock/paper/scissors overtime than PKs.
