Refueling was a safety issue so I don't see that coming back anytime soon. I think it's tough to fairly compare the Bridgestones to the Pirellis as the Bridgestones were never tasked with race laps with full race fuel loads.
When Schumi just marched along to win after win for 7 seasons, was that more exciting to watch? We have had more different race winners in the last two years than ever before. Isn't that what the people wanted? A little more variety on the podium?
What I really like about this season is that they've had to successfully manage several strategies and variables at the same time. This makes the teams think more and get more creative, however when one team gets it 100% right and others get it 100% wrong, you have someone like Alonso winning by a half a minute. It just goes to show how much thought must go into race strategy. The issue is bigger than tires.
