I.e. is you select 4k stacks, then you can't select XFS because we know that _may_ fail. Similiar for ndiswrapper networking, and other stuff where problems have been noticed.
Some people don't need any of these, and can then use safe 4k stacks. Well, at least as safe as the 8k stacks are, there is no mathematical proof for their safety in all cases either.
