Abstract
After formulating a no-go theorem for perfect quantum-classical hybrid systems, a consistency requirement based on standard statistical considerations is noted. It is shown that such requirement is not fulfilled by the mean-field approach or by the statistical ensemble in configuration space approach. Further unusual features of the latter scheme are pointed out.
