Abstract
It is proved that no well-behaved group of unitary operators on physical Hilbert space can have irreducible representations containing all spin states of the particles involved. It is shown that the recently proposed symmetry evades this theorem by acting on the "generalized function," rather than on the physical Hilbert space. Some other possible evasions are also discussed.
