Almost like the AMA wrote the rules to favour them that year..
Three reason why that's a bad example:

1. Mat Mladin won the 2003 Title on a Suzuki.

2. There were two other factories using the same displacement advantage in 2002.

3. 2003 was the year the displacement advantage ended.

The 2002 rules were not written for Honda, they just built the best machine under the existing rules.
