It makes it nearly impossible to write anything useful, since if subprogram A raises exception E, then any subprogram A calls during its body must also only ever raise E, and it's turtles all the way down.
Except that we have a superior language in Ada -- the ability to have nested subprograms can minimize that. Also, the compiler could catch-and-reject any such mistake the programmer makes. in this regard -- we already do it for Restriction pragmas, right?
