Making extra points important is stupid as frick.

Who wants to watch a game end on a missed 33 yard field goal?

NFL moves back extra points bc the play is a given, yet has killed the kickoff as one of the most exciting plays in the game.

This. What was the problem with the gimme extra point? I don't know why they always have to mess with something that works pretty well just for the sake of changing things up.

I do.

I would have preferred getting rid of them altogether. The EP was a stupid invention in the first place.

It's a great move. Just think Team X just drove the field and scored a touchdown with no time left, but need the extra point to send it to OT or miss it and lose. How in the blue hell is that not an exciting scenario? I bet you in this type of scenario, the defense will actually finally try and block the extra point instead of everyone just standing straight up and watching the kick.
