It's a lousy idea, it's poor handloading, awful performance at best and catastrophe at worst.

That's a bit of an overreaction. For instance, I can quite safely use Bullseye to load pretty much everything from .380 to .44 Magnum. Data exists, it's not voodoo, and it's not inherently dangerous.
What I can't do is use Bullseye to get 1250 fps out of a 255-grain LSWC in the .44 Magnum.

You're not missing anything. Some guys like Power Pistol or Hodgdon CFE, but powder is not magic dust.
