The problem is that teams that can already effectively use them are likely already dominant and this would allow them to be more dominant. Or you get the consensus that it's not useful and end up with more throttle motors, but with their own entire section in the manual.

It also has the very real potential to be misused by less experienced teams and cause massive problems when it doesn't work properly.

IMHO it's a can of worms that does not need to be opened.
