In my opinion. To have a much more interesting race night and to ensure that a rider on form who has bad luck in the main has the chance to really make up points.

For example using the below numbers.

James wins a heat 15 pts but finishes 10th in the main 16 pts = 31 pts for the evening.
RV goes through in the lcq and wins the main = 50 points.
RD- 3rd in the heat and 3rd in the main = 43 points

Following weekend.
James wins both heat and race = 65 points
RV heat win and 3rd in main = 50 pts
RD second in heat and 2nd in main = 50 points.

With numbers like below it is much more possible to turn a what would be a very bad main around quickly in the points chase. Every race bar the LCQ would be a fight for the top spots
