Simon S should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Yes, but IMHO it's not a stupid rule, speed differentials in Prodsports are already interesting, abolishing this would not help.

to be honest, any race where there is a mixture of cars on slicks and then some on road tyres is going to be questionable.

look at it this way, would you want to be at Bathurst with some 2F cars doing 3+ minute laps at the same time some GT3 cars are approaching the 2 minute mark?

for example, this is from Philip Island last November:

and the MX5 and Boxter are 2B cars (not the slowest 2F class).
