So you can blame FIA for staying too long with current manu wishes instead of aiming for new ones.
On the other hand the move to hybrids and electric accelerated in last 2 years. So while it looked ok to keep current cars after 2020 when it wad decided in 2018 (I think). It looked like a bad decision basically already at start of 2020.
