The only thing that made DPi "sustainable" (which is I would say one of the two or three worst buzzwords in motorsport today) was being able to fill fields with LMP2 cars which were all but guaranteed to remain available because of being dedicated customer cars used at Le Mans. As soon as they split the classes it became just another American sports car racing top category perpetually teetering on the edge of collapse at any given moment based on the whims of one or two competitors. Imagine if GM decided to pull out of sports car racing right now. The entire pro component of the series would be torpedoed overnight.
