This is a good place to start on the concepts. The idea that we should just arbitrarily turn on a ton of functions without any concrete ideas on the risks involved in doing so, especially when activating each one creates an exponentially greater combination for each additional op_code, is just incredibly dangerous.
I think this is exactly why Satoshi disabled them. Recognizing that there was no clear limitation for what can be executed with them. If you can do generic math, then it’s possible to can create functions that produce infinite outputs.
