Urgentemente should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It really is getting a bit tiresome
As already said, F1 is supposed to be the pinacle of racing, especially from a tech point of view.

It just seems like as soon as a team/teams comes up with a new improvement, somebody goes "ooooh, you can't have that, because it will disrupt airflow/melt the polar ice caps/cause the universe to implode".

Is it really going to make *that* much difference to fuel usage during the course of a race? Again, already said in other comments, you need to carry the fuel before you burn it so it's not a free improvement. Surely the difference in fuel consumption even if the entire field was running with these engine maps, would hardly make a dent in the amount burnt transporting everything around the world for 8-9 months of the year.
crazy....
