I think you just hit on the answer:

• IndyCar, and the FIA strike a deal to make Indianapolis and Monaco dual points races - and the cars will be run under the rulebook set forth by IndyCar. There's precedent for this - the Indy 500 used to be part of the World Championship, back, back, back in the day.

• Allow current IndyCar teams to strike deals with current F1 teams for driver swaps.

• (The current date for Monaco is probably going to be changed anyway due to Liberty's desire to have F1 races line up better graphically, so there should be no scheduling conflict going forward, anyway.)
