I think the reason they give GT3 teams a spot is to try and convert them to GTE. If you buy/rent a GTE car and everything required to run at Le Mans, then the ACO is hoping you'll stick with it afterwards and move to ELMS and WEC.

With LMP3, they aren't as bothered because there are plenty of LMP2 teams so the numbers don't need raised. And of course the LMP3 team is already part of the ACO ecosystem.

I think it's just a way of trying to convert a few GT3 teams to GTE really.
