The bracket is designed to theoretically give the top seeds the easiest path to the championshipI disagree with your premise. I believe the bracket is set up to give the number 1 seed a path where they don't have to face the second or third best team until the Elite 8. If they are the number 1 seed, they should be able to beat the 8th seed and the 4th seed.
But by your logic, if they are the number 1 seed, they should be able to beat the #2 seed and the #3 seed. So why not just schedule the overall #1 to play the overall #2 in the first round, #3 second round, #4 in the third round, etc? They should be able to beat them all.
