if the aggregate score is level, the team that scored the most goals in the away game advances. If the score is level and each team has scored an equal amount of goals away from home, they would go into extra time and then possibly penalties after regulation.

I wouldn't say it like that.  Away goals aren't worth more they are just used as a tiebreaker.

Wow, what a heartbreaking loss for Bayern. They could've easily been up 4-1 at halftime. Van Gaal flat out failed by putting Altintop, who was catastrophic from the moment he stepped on the pitch. And it's hard to criticize Gomez who overall had a great game, but that decision at the end was horrible. He has a wide open Ribery at one side, a wide open Muller at the other side, but he tries to go through himself and loses the ball in a situation that could've resulted in a 100% chance.

PANDEV! 

I can't believe Inter got away with this. As bad as their defense was, Bayern's was just as awful. 

All those chances they failed to put away came back to haunt them.

Why is it a dumb rule.  After 180 minutes there would be so many extra time games if the rule was not there.

The Bayern defending on that Pandev goal was just

It adds to the nerve of the competition. It puts pressure on away teams to pursue scoring chances, put's pressure on home teams to not concede. It decreases the amount of extra time and penalties which adds value to them since they become less common in the competition. Lastly, adds room for strategy over a 2 leg tie.

It's not perfect of course. We often see 2 leg ties practically killed off in the first game such as Chelsea vs FC Copenhagen.
