For me, as a morphologist, this makes much sense, because I know that, first, there are languages where much if not most morphological information is expressed by internal modification rather than by affixes (cf. the Western Nilotic language Dinka as decsribed by Torben Andersen as a possibly extreme case), and, second, even in those cases where it is arguably possible to segment words into discrete formatives, the relations between those and the meanings expressed in the word are notoriously complex (cf. Nen and its relatives as described by Nick Evans and his associates as a possibly extreme case).
