But the race wasn’t neutralised in the traditional sense. So it can hardly be called artificial. People say things are artificial when it's done to close up cars to create excitement. WEC doesn't do that so it isn't artificial at all.

There's no downside to using the FCY to deal with something that would be local yellow before. Its safer and doesn't effect the race and certainly isn't artificial.

The WEC and IMSA FCY systems are nothing alike. One slows cars and maintains gaps. The other puts them behind a safety car. If WEC goes to SC then yes the gaps close but not under FCY and the SC wasn't used for the baseball.
