> Known constraints like guaranteed to terminate is useful.
reply"Guaranteed to terminate" actually means "guaranteed to terminate in finite but possibly arbitrarily large time" which is really not a useful property.
There's no practical difference between a filter that might take 1 billion years to run and one that might take more than a billion years.
Yes but when you combine it with the other guarantees on performance.

And your service puts an upper bound on input size and cel expression size. (True for all practical applications.)
You can actually get a guarantee tha t you can't construct a billion year expression. And even guarantee that all expressions will evaluate in let's say 60 secs.
Turing completeness by itself does not guarantee this but it is a necessary prerequisite for these guarantees.
