I don't want to get stuck in a cycle of "why can't my system just do
what this other system does", or worse end up with problems due to
competing system requirements when patches go in on more flexible
devices because I didn't notice that the device wasn't a good fit for
this sort of thing but people have the expectation that the kernel will
transparently handle things.
