It would help us as a nation retain our position above the Italians and keep stretching Arsenal's squad into the latter part of the season. Even if it is very funny as it stands.
From a selfish perspective, I would hope we do lose the extra champions league spot. It cuts off a massive source of revenue to a potentially resurgent Manchester United or Liverpool. Not only does a club lose CL revenue, they lose the ability to negotiate top tier sponsorships if they arent consistently in the top competition.
Of course its easy for me to say that with the current Manchester City unlikely to finish lower than 3rd, but even if we did, as FFP crumbles, we can once again invest with more freedom as has been the case historically. It may however cause clubs like the rags and liverpool on the periphery to gamble and lose bigtime!
