I would cap the teams at 13. Then each will participate in the revenue sharing system. Winners will still get a bonus and extra money, but this will ensure that the smaller teams won't ever struggle again. and in a few years would catch up to the bigger teams. The sport will be stable, the field will be stable, Everyone wins.
Except Bernie.

He obviously cares nil for the smaller teams; this is evidenced by a 30 year track record. This is the same chap who actively let Brabham die whilst he was still in charge, who watched on while Team Lotus imploded and who paid what amounts to a £60m bribe to a court to get out of a bribery charge.
The teams won't result in a better revenue sharing system whilst one particular imp retains 23% of all revenues for himself, has done deals with certain teams to retain that slice.

Incidentally, Bernie also know about pay drivers being rubbish; having been one himself and failing to qualify for two grands prix in 1958.
