The main issue is that it's not quite clear how to deal with problems like C-style vs FORTRAN-style memory layouts and strides vs suboffsets in defining multidimensional hash equality. Without a use case, it's easier to just punt on the question and declare it illegal.

The 1D hashing case really just comes from wanting to have 1D bytes views behave as much like a bytes object as is practical.
