Evolution is proof that constraints such as survival can act as an iterative filter to generate mind bogglingly innovate solutions. Constraints act as a natural challenge to our puzzle solving brain, providing a much more defined box for us to think outside of and promoting a sense of flow and focus. Innovators are often dreamers and without the grounding force of constraints to impose a sense of reality, many dreams don't become a reality. Constraints force ideas to become more and more fleshed out as they bounce against the wall of constraints. Constraints often result in better lateral thinking abilities as the solutions you've used as a crutch in the past suddenly may not work forcing you to rethink the reality they were constructed in. Constraints are a goal, and everyone knows you can't succeed without defining success.
