Matthew says
<<YOU SHOULD NEVER USE CONSTRAINED SUBTYPES TO TRANSMIT OR RECIEVE DATA
ACROSS AN EXTERNAL INTERFACE.>>
There is no possible justification for such a rule (in caps or otherwise)
in my opinion. Sure you have to be careful to know what you are doing,
but this rule is entirely unsupportable. What is important is to use
appropriate representation clauses and pragmas. If this is done, the
above rule is not helpful.
