It seems to me like this type of rule would really push the engineering envelope. Maybe we'd get lucky and some of that engineering would find its way into our street cars.
All that type of rule would achieve is pushing the budgets out of control.

F1 will only be as good as the sponsor interest, and the current engine formula is massively irrelevant to both the needs of the manufacturers and sponsors, hence the switch.
