The more I think about it, the better I understand it. They need big brands to attract the casual spectator as they are the ones bringing in the money (quantity over quality, spectator-wise)
And when those brands leave (which they do in every series, ever), you're left with nobody if you haven't taken care of the privateers. We just watch this cycle with LMP1 only a couple of years ago.

Call me cynical but this all seemed fine and we were getting a ByKolles hypercar and the ACO never said anything. And then Peugeot turn up and suddenly no privateers.

Aye, ok.
