Why can contingent values only be used on visible fields?

One of our forms for data collection uses a dichotomous key for questions to be answered out in the field.

So Question 1 - Answer Yes then the next question in the dichotomous key becomes visible.  Answer No and another field becomes visible, etc., etc.

Some questions have a domain list and if you answer domain code 1 and 3 question Z becomes visible and if you select domain code 2, 4, 5,6 that question is not visible and they move on to another question.

We created contingent values to define the mapping between the two.  There were a couple form questions that we were able to add some arcade to replace the need for contingent values. But we still have the need for contingent values for those other fields.

When you have the contingent values for those fields, the form in fields maps app says unsupported data in this form and nothing on the form displays.  

Does anyone have insight as to why this rule exists?

Thank you!
