No, I don't think you're in a minority; I have experienced the issues that you outline there Brett and they are all valid - A bivvy bag can deal with some of them, but not all.
In fact, I usually carry both (belt and braces) - but I have gone with one or other (or none!!) - which gives increased flexibility & options in rough camping. On a long trip, you can always post one or other home, as and when.
As mentioned earlier, a bivvy bag around the sleeping bag will give an amount of extra insulation with more still air enclosing you - and if the tent does leak, well no worries!!
