As alluded to earlier in the thread they seem to have a real knack of destroying healthy series.

I agree with this.
A ladder system makes sense if you can move up from national series to an international serie where drivers are getting paid. But there isn't a series like that.
Currently I don't see the need for FIA involvement in touring car racing. If they would have invented TCR it would be different. There's TCR for national and regional series and the countries with their own successful series have their own technical rules and don't need FIA. FIA should stay away from these series.
