Because what happened yesteryear got is where we are today, which is a pretty damn good place. It could be a whole lot worse.
Without the work that was done in yesteryear by the people (who we, the BRCA members voted in) behind the scenes of the EB, we'd be in a much worse place.
Classes wouldn't necessarily use the the same batteries across class. You'd be buying new batteries every week, they could still be worse than what team guys get. I'm not just talking about Regional or National level, I'm talking worldwide. The work done by the very same people has laid the foundations for EFRA, IFMAR, ROAR and pretty much every other governing body, so that all racers worldwide use the same framework. This may not seem relevant at your local club, but for any drivers that wish to progress to larger races it's great.
Believe it or not, the rules weren't created by one guy overnight just for fun. They were discussed, created, modified and implemented to solve problems that the BRCA members were facing, and they were done in such a way that brought 99% of countries onto the same line. The people who don't realise this seem quite willing to undo all that hard work for the sake of some cheap lipo's, without any thought to the potential consequences (which at a guess would be minimum the same problems we previously had).
