Few (any ?) with so many conspiring (not using the term in a

starting on even-par with points.

He kind of did though didn't he. Those were the main reasons he was in
a position to be gifted the WDC by the RD.
While he did not do enough to win the race without FIA assistance, as
far as the WDC and the season goes, the solid consensus is that neither deserved it more than the other based on their performances alone.

Yes. "One." As in:
"very WDC ever was one (a WDC).
Few (any ?) with so many conspiring (not using the term in a
conspirational sense) external factors in a last race with leaders
starting on even-par with points.
But there's a fallacy in there.
The last race is no more important than the first race in terms of who
wins the championship.
If this had happened earlier in the season, I think it would have passed without much comment at all.

Maybe every one clinched before the final race ?
You think there weren't unusual incidents in those that led to the
eventual WDC gaining points or his rival failing too?

To pretend that the ONLY reasons that Hamilton isn't WDC is what
happened in the last race is absurd.

And I'd completely agree with that.
Both drivers had a great season.
Both drivers screwed up occasionally.
