I recall the Alfa Romeo-Osella story slightly different: In late 1986 Alfa Romeo became a part of FIAT which already is the mothercompany of Ferrari. So within the FIAT concern they suddenly had two totaly different F1 engine design's. More importantly Enzo Ferrari had signed the FIAT-Ferrari contract in the 60's after FIAT agreed that Ferrari will be the only F1 Team within the FIAT family. To avoid being blamed by the Italian press for taking away the little Osella Team their engine, Enzo agreed to let Osella use the Alfa Romeo engine in 1987. Of course there was no development on the engine, and for 1988 Alfa Romeo no longer wanted to be related to the bad performances of the Osella Team.

I miss it too, although I understand how it came to this and it has some good aspects. I mean the Hart/Judd/Yamaha/whatever engine was notoriously underpowered, the client Cosworth engine usually had 5% less power than the works engine and certainly wasn't top notch even in that version (except in 94). Peugeot blew it (:D) a whole year before it got things right on a chassis that was probably close to its betters, became great with Jordan only to lose itself on a shitty Prost chassis. Mugen-Honda just...vanished, as it outperformed its mother company's engine initially. Lambo missed its only occasion to shine in 93, not that it would've been reliable either way. At least now when a smaller team pulls off a good chassis it may perform well outside of Monaco and other slow circuits. Having fewer engines means there's more cars on track despite having 6 fewer on the grid due to higher reliability (more cars finish each and every GP nowadays than in the 80s/90s) , and lower gaps between them on top. So the diversity ending is bad, but the outcome is pretty positive as a whole.

I think Red Bull should have kept calling them Honda. Honda's decision to withdraw from the sport for the umpteenth time at the end of 2021 showed the Japanese company miscalculated. In spite of its woeful return with McLaren, its switch to Toro Rosso in 2018 showed that the V6 Turbo Hybrid from Honda was better than they were able to show with McLaren, indeed, Pierre Gasly took P4 in Bahrain. Then the following year, Red Bull started their partnership win Honda, leading to many wins, but no title until (ironically) the year Honda pulled out, 2021. They must have realised that they missed out on a commercial boom period and credit for the title won in 2021 as towards the end of 2022, Red Bull started displaying "Honda" on its engine cover once again
