You are not restricted, it is simply stupid to create an ebook that you intend to be read on all devices, if some of them will crash on it.

Do some people still have those devices? (yes) Do you want your books to be able to be read on them? (I don't know, do you?)

If the answer to both those questions is "yes" then don't create ebooks that will crash the target devices.
