Camilli going up to WRC without any experience at all was a terrible move for everyone involved, and his results that year were nothing short of catastrophic. However, he has been improving in WRC2 for sure. I think he's a much better driver now thAn three years ago, and might deserve a chance at the top level, if at least for a single outing, to judge whether he improved or not.

Maybe Camilli is the best Citroen can do (afford?) in testing. And if so why Budar complained about current WRC cars entering National rallies.
Hyundai and Toyota have the budgets for this and Citroen and M-Sport dont. Maybe the testing rules do need tightening to keep things fair and more level...

Yes, it's a lot different to taking a car to a random national event. It's in co-operation with the WRC Promoter who probably demands at least one car from each team and also there's most likely financial support to get it happening from the promoter and from the event organizers.

Who else do you have who has driven a 2017 WRC car (albeit only in test tracks) but has not collected manu points this or last year and is not a gentleman driver? Also, Camilli has done also other testing work like with the Polo, so he's good for the job.
EDIT: I think Lefebvre would also fit the conditions.
