There's always been a certain faction within the LP that tried to recruit Big Name Politicians. They were the ones who got excited about Bob Barr and Gary Johnson.
The idea is, that if they run a Big Name Politician, it will mean the LP are players, in the same league as the Democrats and Republicans.

Not necessarily. For some of them, it is a rather of priorities of which is the crucial issue. For some Libertarians, bodily integrity is the most important, so no pro-shot policy is pre-eminent.
The Libertarian Party as a whole punted during Covid because half of them bought Fauci's line and made a horrible, horrible exception. There are two (plus) major factions in the Libertarian Party, they are either really pro-life (human rights for the unborn) or rabidly pro-abortion (none of government's business at any level). Some have freedom to smoke all the weed (or use any narcotic whatsoever) as issue #1, and others who don't want to police involved using it for an excuse for anything whatsoever but have it far down on their "To Do" list.
The party in organizes along a minimal government, non-aggression principle, but the reality sorts out very differently.
