One thing I heard while watching BBC or Sky pre-season prediction.
Part of the objectives of the new engine regulations, was to make F1 more relevant to general public vehicles. Which we might see it in some prototype production models in 5-7 years time.

Probably that's why they put a fuel flow restriction, not just for strategy, but to set up a challenge for engine manufacturer. How to use less fuel at any given moment, and more efficiently burn that drop of fuel to produce more power.
Not simply squirt more fuel and oxygen anymore.

Its a new "Formula", how to use fuel more wisely. Without sacrificing performance too much. So we won't see future hybrids as dreadful as Prius.

just a thought.
