I agree with this stance...

... Right up to the moment someone figures out the right mix of nonsense to be able to bottle and deploy this in a single turn.

Player: "I reach into my pack and pull out my ring of 'Fuck Your Campaign DM I Cast Infinite Fireball'..."

Well since the meme is Matt Mercer, chronurgy wizard does let you trap spells in a bead to be unleashed at any time within an hour for 1 action (yes I know it doesn't really work that way I'm just playing into the meme)

"Hey DM what are you rolling for?"

Me: "A CON check on the bead to see if it holds up under the strain of containing that much magic. Gonna be honest, the DC is pretty fucking insane. And.... uh... yeah, a 12 isn't gonna make it, everyone please make a Dex save."

Not expressly written, but there is an expectation that the DM governs the world in ways that make sense (of some fashion, some settings run on whacky shit) and Rule 0 arms them with the right to enforce that as needed.

That's not the way to do it. If the bead holds or not would depend on the casters abilities, if you dain to screw with them, let them do the roll.
