Perhaps the government decided it was worth it for the reduction in

stays with the car for its entire life.

There's absolutely no reason why the old style plate couldn't stay with
the car for its entire life.

Providing that car stayed registered within the same dept.


No, it would work exactly like our own system, where the car is
registered in the "Département" it is purchased in, and retains that
numberplate for its whole life. I'm sorry if you can't understand
this, because it is about as clear as I can make it.
