This penalty is huge. Only one similar I can think of is the horseshit penalty Carl Long encountered during the Showdown a couple years back.
Somebody is going to lose their job over this because there is no way they intentionally unbalanced the engine. What would be the advantage of a single light rod?

It cannot earn car owner points which are different than driver owner points. There is a separate car owner points chase, but nobody cares about that besides NASCAR teams and fans teams with multiple drivers (55, 51).
