Is this not the problem with any programming language? It's turing-complete, yet you find something you can't do (I mean, brainfuck is turing-complete, but try implementing a closure in it), you complain to the maintainers, they say it doesn't fit the design criteria. Sure, you might be more likely to fit those limits earlier in a visual code design tool, but that's not a fundamental design limitation, just an implementation one.
