That falls apart when you have all the words like bit and bite, made and mad, same and sam.

I disagree. If the letter your adding is E, it will change the promounciation of the vowel. That's the function of the E. Adding a consonant like t doesn't change the vowel sound (eg. How you would pronounce something like "sif" vs "sift" - no change in the vowel.
