Despite little being said in public, IMSA have been lobbying equally as hard as the ACO to ease Porsche and Acura into P1, without rocking the boat.
I really do not believe that the generalization in that comment is necessary nor appropriate, when there are people on both sides of the Pond who express that general sentiment in their posts! And some of the people that you are referencing live North of the border so it is not just a U.S. thing!

But they have spelled it out.
They made it clear that they know that everything does not come in the same neat little box and they will retain the ability, as is their right, to oversee and manage what is "LeMans" and make sure of its health and continued longevity on its storied quest to preserve Sports Car racing.
