I still find it a strange decision. What easier way to improve fuel consumption than lowering the minimum weight?
Maybe it is merely a safety decision. The lower the weight, the lower the potential "take-off" speed. Seeing as the ACO has not fundamentally altered the aero rules, the prototypes are still reliant on over body downforce to keep the cars "stuck" to the ground.
