Isn't aggressive-indent-excluded-modes a bit blunt/arbitrary?

I mean, shouldn't we argue for each mode *why* it shouldn't use
aggressive-indent, and then maybe come up with a way to make this
variable unnecessary (because we can determine it automatically)?

E.g. maybe some of those modes shouldn't use aggressive-indent simply
because auto-reindentation can't be done reliably (in which case,
aggressive-indent could check something like electric-indent-inhibit
which was introduced for the same kind of needs)...
