Why though? If you see it from a "real world application" standpoint, even if the other guy ends up on top of you, you just hit him with the pavement. That's the traditional reason ippon meant end of contest.
And for sports reason: if this happens after ippon, it's most likely because Tori let it happen knowing it was ippon. And if there was such a rule, I'd just position my lapel hand in a way Tori will always end up in a choke after throwing me for ippon.
The whole "hit them with the planet" idea sounds nice, but go watch some street fight videos. Sometimes it works, yeah. But from what I've seen, more often, a big takedown will slam someone HARD and they get straight back up.
This 100%. The presumption of the fight ending throw is a delusion. Yes it can end the fight... but it often doesn't, even with a good throw.
Furthermore, many of the best throws in competition depend on some of the unique factors of sport judo. Perfect grips on the gi, and standard judo play on the part of uke, especially.
I used to repeat the "judo hits then with the planet" trope, but it was watching street fight videos that changed my mind. If the throw doesn't work, you'd better be still on your feet or in a good position to finish the fight.

Roling over and ending in a more compromised position then your opponent after a throw is not ippon worthy.
