All the marketing departments of all the component, system etc manufacturers trumpet what their products CAN do. So let’s turn that on its head and talk about what things CANNOT do.

But it’s a good mental trick to make complicated-looking things look more obvious, or look worse. It’s worth trying just for those cases where it pays off.
