Once the full cartesian explosion is available by multidimensional enumeration, we have to mark out which corners of the space are actually bad ideas, and we have to make sure our implementations don't stumble into those corners by accident. This isn't impossible to do, but it seems ripe for subtle implementation bugs. --dkg
