For Am class and the like, sure. But it's hard to argue that Pro teams in GTWC need this, but it isn't need in ACO Series, F1, etc. Fuel flow (as in, filling the tank, not the cars fuel flow) is not BoP'd anymore. Pit stops are regulated by the times, not the skill of the crew pulling it off.
I understand the levelling of playing field for the Pro-Am, Silver and Am classes. But not the Pro. Otherwise you can use the "gives them time to do X correctly" argument to argue the return of minimum lap times too. Don't want anyone risking anything going too fast.
