These aren't limitations imposed by The LEGO Group. They include a box of parts with instructions to build a model, but that doesn't stop anyone from building other things.

There are a few sites around where LEGO fans post alternate builds of models. Here's an example search showing 100+ alternate models built from a single 67 piece kit:

You can do this with licensed themes as well. Here's five alternate models that I built from a tiny X-Wing:

Seeing what a set designer has put together is always a fun way to learn new techniques and design concepts, but there's nothing stopping anyone from building whatever they want out of a LEGO set.
