To Box or Not?

Opinions?
Considering that almost all stereo photographs are taken at
f16-f32, is there any reasonable arguments against not making a
fixed hyperfocus box stereo camera? If the focus is set at, say,
30ft, most depth of field ranges would span from 8-10ft to
infinity at f16+. This would greatly simplify camera
construction. Any significant drawbacks?
