MODERATORS
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm saying it's stupid. If the FIA supposedly are trying to lead the way in technologies that will eventually make their way to consumer automobiles, they should be celebrating advancements in aero. But maybe I'm biased as an aerospace engineer by background.
It's because the FIA don't actually care about F1 developing technology for road-cars. If they cared there wouldn't be huge engine and ERS restrictions, a tire monopoly, and limits on aero innovations (as you pointed out). They use the road-car excuse to either slow the cars down or for commercial/financial gain.
