In the case of DMD, it's a matter of when and which (typically heart), not if. The muscle fibers turn into fiberous tissues that aren't functional muscle. They fail.

Well "matter of when" would still suggest that more is better, within reasonable bounds.

But if they turn into tissue that gets in the way, that would be a big reason not to want more. Is that the main reason?
