Thanks MikeFromTokyo and Aventine. All fair points, and hence my dilemma! 
The flight is at 10am. So would mean leaving RC Kyoto around 5:30/6am (to be there for 8), and leave StR Osaka at 6:45/7am.
For now, I've got bookings at both, and will see which way the wind blows closer to the time (or where we book for dinner the night before!)
(The limousine bus sure does sound a winner, versus trains and changes. Taxis seem a little steep out there.)
