You're right, of course.
Thing is though, F1 still has a long way to go to get back to what I would call real, exciting 'racing'.
If you compare F3 to F1 the excitement factor in F3 is far better. F1 has got too wound up in the rules governing aero. The mechanical grip is gone and aero grip rules to the point that a car chasing another cannot get past due to the air displaced by the car in front. Even when the chase car is far faster. Max should take a long hard look at F1, get back to slicks, cut the aero crap, disallow driver aids, and let the guys just race.
Oh for the days of Mansell and Senna.
