Dear Sri Lakshmi Narasimhan: This issue was discussed in some detail in January 1998. Please visit the archives and see this article, among others: http://www.ramanuja.org/sv/bhakti/archives/jan98/0162.html As you have noted, such a restriction does not jive well with the teaching of both Bhishma and Bhattar.
