i have to wonder whether or not the issue is really about a new team or if its about delaying the new team into 2026 or later with the aim of securing a much larger future buy in amount?
these rumours of Renault pulling their engine deal could speak to tactics of delay?

I call this 2025 vs. 2026 issue above. I believe that is exactly what is going on. That if Andretti comes in as part of 2026 (and no doubt with larger fees) the teams will all of a sudden welcome them with open arms.
I have heard the Renault rumor. No clue if it is true or not.
