Yes, of course you're right. But they have to take care about gonzos wanting to use the chicanes, the lights/wirings/cables could be stolen and more important there is a lot of shops whose business is impacted.
To give you a rough idea, (Patrick Peter is a very wise businessman) over the years this event became more and more important with a lot of foreign venues and the increasing bill issued by ACO could have compromised the financial balance. Since several years, there's a joint venture between PA and ACO (well, more likely Fillon the brother of you know who), and LMC is now a company on its own. Sorry for the pigeon English, but I'm quite convinced you got the picture.
