The addition of an 11th team would place an operational burden on race promoters

That's the first good argument against them joining that I have ever heard. But I'm sure that's solveable.

Also quite ironic when Liberty has been increasing the pressure on race promoters, and even insisted on promoting the Miami & Las Vegas races themselves instead on relying on race promoters.

It is not a good argument. The current regs state every F1 track must have capacity/facilities for 12 teams. Not to mention a big portion of the tracks on the calendar hosted 11 teams in 2016, and 12 teams in 2012.
