that would have been a great question.

other than being louder i dont look back of the last years of the V8 era being all that great or really any different then it is now.

sure the engines were cheaper but the money from the over bloated budgets was spent on aero instead of engines, races were still processional, the outcomes of races were still predictable, lack of driver input was still there, it was still too expensive for the small teams, poor governance, over priced etc etc.

i dont see how going back to V8s is a magic bullet. personally i would rather see the new technology made to work rather than abandon to go back to formula that most thought was pants back then anyways.

i suppose i should add that i'm going to watch regardless. too much time invested to pull out now.
