Why?  It is not as if we couldn't count all the features that are
currently used and make sense.  And in the future, the number of sane
features will still be fairly low.  All we have to do is tell people
trying to add "can_do_my_crap" that we don't want such crap in the
kernel.

Note the "and make sense" part in the second sentence. ;)
