That's not gonna happen ever since F3000/GP2/F2 was put on the support bill of Grand Prix so all the young talent is on site to be looked at anyway. 28 F2 races is more than enough to recognize talent and give the fans a show. Plus it's much cheaper to have those ladder teams pay the crash bill.
The whole sprint idea concept was a completely useless swing for the fences since Red Bull's dominance actually profits from the extra points boost of these races. And nobody will approve reverse grids in F1 because that's pure hogwash gimmick at this level. Manufacturers don't spend millions of dollars for their cars to be put on the last row by design.
