While counterintuitive, MWC's reasoning is completely logical and his conclusion could be seen as the natural and unavoidable consequence of that reasoning. The MVP is the Most Valuable Player. The most valuable player is the one who would make the biggest difference to a random team if he were added to it. Actually playing is only evidentiary in nature- actual play is used to prove who is the most valuable. But it's only a matter of evidence, not a matter of the substantive question of who is the MVP.
"would" is the incorrect term for something perceived to be earned/deserved. and dome players should never win anything.
