There was a recent court case where a financial institution tried to call in the pension fund of an individual and was unsuccessful. If we tamper with pension funds and seek to have them released early or to take partial payments out of them, the courts might say that if they are to be used for purposes other than one's pension, we may end up letting the institutions grab them, as it were.
