They didn't have to be drawn up - they could have always air restricted or rev limited the V10s. The V8s were brought in for alleged cost control, which didn't exactly work. A fuel formula has advantages as well as disadvantages, what could be a good idea would be to go for the reciprocal of that idea and limit the power - then the development will be about fuel economy. Six races and 780hp, safe and limitations on "NASA technologies", otherwise free soulds like it could be a sensible proposition.
