A lot of the competitors in GT4 cars were more experienced than plenty of drivers in GT3 cars.
GT4 is not a beginner level GT series, it is just another GT series that caters to different types of cars. It would be like saying the 0-1600cc class of Group A was a beginners class, which it obviously wasn't.

Sorry, that argument no longer cuts it as there is an alternative. And it has even more classes and bigger grids for those that think that way

Supercars themselves even stated last year the 12hr is a multi-class race. The fans have spoken many times saying they want it to remain a multi-class race. As mentioned you can get your small grid single class fix in October.
Most of the safety cars were caused by GT3 cars anyway, it wouldn't cut down the safety cars by very much.

It does not run in the Blancpain endurance or sprint series, instead it is on the card with them as support race.

The Intercontinental GT Challenge is
not a Championship. It is an award that is attached to already established events to link a bit of extra interest to the GT3 part of the race.
The organisers of the title have never, publically at least, called for any of the IGTC races to be GT3 only. Spa is only GT3-only because it's a round of the GT3-only Blancpain Endurance Series.
