And the argument "well you shouldn't overuse it," is a terrible one.
Wrong.
Take a car, it is not because it can go at 200+ KPH that you are allowed to, and even if allowed to, still does not make it safer for you.
Or a DVDR, you can legaly buy it, fill it with anything you want, even use it to store things you shouldn't.
In an open game like TESs just like in real world freedom has a price, you can't overuse it because doing so has consequences : if
you choose to powerplay smithing/alchemy/enchanting/whatever and in the end it ruins
your gameplay this is
your fault, deal with the consequences of
your choice.
So, don't overuse it, control or police yourself instead of trying to enforce limitations on others.
