That would theoretically be most fair, but it would be really difficult for production. If there is another group afterwards, the whole scheduled gets pushed back by the additional nail-biter match that people would surely want to watch.

Plus those players would have a disadvantage the next day by having played a possibly exhausting match at a point when they where already tired.
I think in that case it would be better to just go with head-to-head.

Just take the day off from after the open bracket and put it after the 4 groups
Also they have multiple streams, half the decisions for every group don't happen on the main one. The tie breaker could be played on C for example if it's between groups. C would probably be in game 1 of the first series of the next group before there's significant delay. Or entirely off-stream.
