Alternatives have had a reasonably severe restriction since their introduction. This has been the source of several bugs, and several inefficiencies particularly in the speculative safety paths, and I've finally gotten bored enough to fixing it. Introduce the new infrastructure, and adjust the BHB scrubbing logic to use it.
