The main drawback I see is that the specification is "in lowest terms".
It would be a full nuisance to have tuplets oscillating between 15th,
5th, and 3rd tuplets depending on their distribution.  Sixtuplets are
plain out, it is not clear why and when duols will be notated with dots
and when not, and the subdivision to pick for duols/quartols is totally
unclear as it competes with normal note lengths.
