I suppose the same questions could be asked regarding various changes that have been made to the stroke rules over the years.
The bottom line is that there are world records that have been set by swimmers wearing the suits, and there are world records that have been set by swimmers who weren't wearing the suits, suggesting that the suits (contrary to the manufacturers' claims) haven't made much difference (though who knows whether that will continue as the suits continue to be redesigned).
I think it would have been better to have banned the suits in the beginning, but I see no problem with doing it now.

Doesn't the rule about suits state that they can't enhance performance in any way. I tried to find the FINA rule but couldn't. Is there someone with the rule intheir head or could get it quickly?
I have a fastskin brief. I really liked wearing it when I race. Right now I'm working out with a Speedo Endurance. I wish that the legs were either longer or shorter. The leg openning keeps riding up my leg.
