I remember that line being peddled as well. As you say, it rings hollow when the proposed solution is to artificially accelerate the situation under the guise of protecting the chosen few.
We're going to end up in a situation where there is only one constructor in the running. If this happened without the restriction, then hats off to <insert constructor here> for building the best chassis. But to have such an obvious guiding hand will always rankle, regardless of whether the racing is great or gash (and I happen to think it's the former).
