This will couple the vm to this host, so you cannot run it to another
host. If this host
is down, you cannot run the vm on any other host, since your storage is gone.

Don't you think this is a severe limitation as well?

The current system is focused on high availability; all hosts must be
able to access all
storage domains in the data center, so you can run any vm on all hosts
on the data center.

If you don't need to migrate vms or manage shared storage, you can use
virt-manager
to run vms on specific hosts.
