Why would the FAA want to close a loophole that allows continued ownership of an American aircraft (and thus revenue for the Americans) from a non US citizen?

Most people in Europe who own a N reg aircraft and operate it in Europe do so because it allows them access to a less expensive system of personal licences and maintenance. If theTrust ownership loop hole was removed that would become impossible for most.
