I think OP meant "can't" as in "probably wouldn't be able to come up with the queries", not that it's literally impossible. Malloy compiles to SQL, so it's by definition impossible for it to express something SQL cannot.
By that definition, in that case, OP "can't" express themselves in plain English.
Pretty sure OP meant emphasis on _you_ can't. As in, things a human can't do.
