"there should always be paths only through the stepping stones that satisfy a certain (reasonable) limitation or constraint"

Sounds like wishful thinking and a fragile position.

What if there's no such a path and not following an "unsuitable" path (one, that doesn't satisfy a certain (reasonable) limitation or constraint) is posing an existential risk itself?

As we can not predict consequences in a complex system in the long run, I cannot see how one can evaluate a "reasonability" of constraints beyond open-endness principles.
