I think this was discussed some time ago either on this forum or some other but the point was also that in order to sweep the car must be driven by a competent driver otherwise the lines are useless. Even if you add a sweeper car, not necessarily replacing the 0 car but in addition and it runs out of competition with a good enough driver such as Ostberg or Meeke there are still issues. If that car breaks down or Meeke does his thing then you as leading driver have no sweeper so it can become unfair due to luck.
Add in weather complications and it's really really hard to make a system that improves the situation without adding more downside than upside. 1 day sweeping for the champ leader is ok, what would make things better is if there were more top cars so that if you lose time on day 1 you would not be almost guaranteed to sweep day 2 as well. Seems this (more Rally1 cars) is my go-to line but it really would fix a lot of issues. Not saying more manufacturers necessarily just more cars. Would help youngsters get more experience in top cars as well and so on. But anyway....

Tänak only has good first splits and fades away

Interestingly, Rovanpera's time matched the stage-winning time first time round.
Seems like the road surface damage won't slow things down. At least for now.
