So why does a WRC rally in Kenya have to be like the old Safari ie. extra long and tough ?

A 'normal' gravel rally held there would still be good as it would put WRC back on that continent.
Chile has a long tradition of normal rallying on the roads we saw a week ago. Why should they have suddenly used a Dakar element? Kenya has similarly arranged rallies on the roads similar to the candidate event for years.

Besides, I don’t think Kenya has much road types to choose from.
