Iowa is 0.875 of a mile, and Richmond is 0.750 of a mile, so there is a difference.

You haven't said anything of the kind, but I've just seen too many comments in too many places from people who just seem to want a return to mandatory front-engined cars with no wings, dirt ovals, all races in the US, and few, if any, road courses of any stripe.

I get keeping it about the fans.

As for "keeping it simple", that's not so clear. Part of the problem is something we see everywhere, which is, everybody wanting and trying to do everyone else' job, because they want control. It also doesn't help that you have the Speedway looking after its own stuff, and it's sort of up to the Series and events, as separate entities from the Speedway in a number of regards, to figure out their end, with the Speedway calling shots all the while. It's not exactly a simple arrangement to start with.
