In all fairness, LIONEL had no idea that PE would be the hit it is and could not see the future (i.e. make a mega loco to pull the umpty ump add on cars that are an ongoing 8 years down the road). Too, the could have stated somewhere early on that all the add ons could not be pulled by the original PE. I have one of the very first sets and I have 2 add on cars in addition to the original 3. How many cars can I add before I have a problem? I think there are 2 or 3 I don't have, not counting scale items and the "Polar RR" stuff.
