I could agree if shredder and Ferret won all games except the games between them but it is not the case. If Ferret is not worse than Shredder then I expect Ferret to take advantage of the fact that it played against weaker opponents and to have more points. > It's also not fair not to have a second final shootout if > the first was a draw.

If ferret could win shredder with the white pieces in round 6 then it could be the world champion without having to beat shredder with black pieces. The only thing that may be unfair is the fact that Shredder played 5 games(including the last game) with white when Ferret played only 4 games with white but playing the last game with opposite colours does not solve this problem.
