They should be SAT solvers, but people also want them to be vague and super flexible. Many people I know responded to Apple UI constraints (what was the name again?) with ‘what am I, a math professor?’. People want throw poop against a wall and smear it around and when they are happy with their work, they want to press a button and get the absolute optimal result that fits their broadest use case.
No different from what most non-frontend developers want by the way.
Problem is; that is not yet possible at all, because ‘the spec’ is too vague and strictness generated from vagueness will either be just vagueness (cannot find any constraints to throw into a solver so just leave it) or too strict (where many cases simply are suddenly forbidden that were actually feasible cases by the author).
