Then you get a different kind of problem - people scrutinzing things
very closely, looking for loopholes, optimizations, etc. And you'll
get folks demanding small changes that will make it "much better". If
you listen to them, you end with rules designed by a committee. They
might actually be good rules - the ones that ended up in the later
versions of the Empire games (completely rule driven) were pretty good.
