No, that would be analogous to disallowing customized harnesses, ie tooling specially crafted by someone else for the specific task at hand. Insisting that an LLM solve something without the ability to make use of any external tooling whatsoever is almost perfectly analogous to insisting that a human mechanic work on a car with nothing but his own bare hands.
The wrench is to the mechanic as the stock python repl is to the LLM.
