I totally agree with you, in fact i thought about the same thing a couple of weeks ago. Away goal rule simply push teams to defend, attack cautiously. It`s been discussed very often in the past: how to make the game more entertaining? How to reward teams that play good football ? Away-goal rule is one of the rules that prevent good football. I mean for ex i am an A team and i beat B team 1-0 , i lose 2-1 at B`s home and i qualify. What`s the difference? Scoring 1 goal away is soooo hard? I qualified because i scored an away goal. Maybe that goal was from a spot-kick in a game that only tried to defend. Is this fair? Is this good football?
I think away-goal should be removed and if the aggregate is equal, extra time shall be played without new Golden , Silver goal rules. ( With the silver goal , golden goal system we wouldn`t have seen Bayern through in The Uefa CUP as they conceeded 2 goals in 1st part in the extra time already. But they managed to score 2 more in the second extra time , and so qualified. )
