-The constraint $|m|<n$, can be justified by considering eq.\eqref{kugel:eq:associated_leg_func}, where we differentiate $m+n$ times. We all know that a differentiation, to be well defined, must have an order that is greater than zero \kugeltodo{is that always true?}. Furthermore, it can be seen that this derivative is applied on a polynomial of degree $2n$. As is known from Calculus 1, if you derive a polynomial of degree $2n$ more than $2n$ times, you get zero, that would be a trivial solution.
