This year's LM race and results shows imo we can get rid of GTE/P-Pro and Am and merge them back into one class.
Am drivers that want to compete in their own class can go P2 (which is becoming more restrictive and cheaper to run from 2017 onwards anyway) or go GT3 (and focus on getting skilled at Spa and the Nurburgring before coming back to Le Mans).
The new models will make the merge almost impossible for next year but it could be done in 2017 without too much difficulty (as that is also the year the new P2 rules come into force).
