(Un)popular Opinion: Excessively good reliability makes the sport much worse
The most obvious reasoning is that it makes it less fun to watch, as random reliability issues would always add a feeling of uncertainty, which is what sports are all about for me. One reason football is the most watched sport in the world, beyond its ease to understand at a basic level, is that there's so much unpredictability to it. Upsets happen so so often.
However F1 is also an engineering sport, and thus in my opinion any time a technical aspect reaches a point whereby everyone is near perfect, you have to artificially bring in new challenges to keep it interesting.
Very much hope that the next reg set does this with the engine changes, but even then there are so few constructors that it's still expected to be pretty stable.
The only real argument I can think of for being pro-perfect-reliability is safety concerns, which I agree with wholeheartedly but you can have bad reliability without risking the drivers lives in my opinion.
How do others feel about this, is this a common feeling or just me?
