We would want to stop that so that when someone manages to scam emself
a win, the other players don't immediately do the same thing (and, even
more importantly, the same player doesn't repeat the exploit over and
over).  But there is no reason we would want to stop players 'winning
normally' when that is undefined and therefore impossible.
