Really the only thing P2 has going for it is that all the small constructors that used to make P1s are there, otherwise the specification and performance level is rather boring. So while this takes that away, pushing people back into P1 isn't so bad.
Yeah, except the Cosworth DFV wasn't mandated to be used by everyone...they just all picked it because it was the best.
