Anyone who has played for dance has felt the boredom that can come with repetition. Sometimes you do feel trapped within a simple chord progression. However, I think, at least speaking for myself, I have come to the conclusion that it's really a lack of effort and creativity on my part when that happens. I think you have to then shift and create something rhythmically interesting, or devise some harmonic change that works within the palo. I too have definitely felt trapped within traditional tientos, tarantos and seguiriya at times. But I think we just have to be very creative in how we make it interesting for ourselves, clear for the dancers, and comprehensible for the audience. It's a very hard thing to do all that and sound musical, original, yet flamenco at the same time. But it seems that is our challenge.
