I do not think it makes sense to arouse expectations that we can never satisfy.

It would have been cruel to arouse expectations which might never be fulfilled.

How did a drug whose very usefulness is now in doubt arouse such unfounded expectations?

Both prices and menu descriptions arouse enormous expectations for the meal to follow.

So the 2001 Pathfinder did not arouse high expectations.

Kennedy and Wilson had both aroused expectations, which had not been fulfilled.

It keeps matters neat, does not arouse excessive expectations, and can be monitored.
