@monotym,
The idea behind lumping Chevy in with P/B/GMC would be to reduce the amount of crossover between brands forcibly. There's no reason for cars like the Cobalt coupe, G6 sedan, Traverse or Lacrosse to exist except to give dealers something to sell. Restructure the franchises to allow any dealer to sell any product thand that requirement largely goes away, leaving Chevy the mainstream, Pontiac sports, Buick near-lux and GMC trucks.
Saab and Saturn (in it's current "Opel West" form) are sufficiently different that they warrant their own dealership. Combining the two prevents Saturn from stepping on Saab's lower-end models.
