You really don’t see a difference between the two? They’re all just meaningless games?

I side more with this.
Preseason games are when the team should be ramping up and getting used to real Football again. Obviously not a full games worth, but a little bit is fine.
Week 17 is when the player's bodies are falling apart and they're crawling to the finish line. They don't need to be ramping up. They need rest, desperately.
