You need to distinuish between rules changes for safety, procedural, technical or racing rules.

Safety is always valid.
Procedural to improve or validate changes in the way things are managed are usually valid if it results in a genuine improvement.
Technical rule changes that affect safety are always valid, other rule changes to improve the quality of the racing or improve the spectacle of the sport are probably valid.
Rules governing principles of driving, (resulting in judicial and other issues) need to be as constant as possible within reason. Stability and transparency in this area stops confusion and misunderstanding (Spa anyone?).
