If a client application does something wrong there is one barrier less to
prevent bad data from being added.

If an entry has object class 'extensibleObject' a generic schema-aware client
has to present all attribute types found in the schema in an input form which
can get huge then.

etc.

=> Everybody should learn how to define custom object classes and how to use
relax rules control for online migration of existing entries.
