To try and decrease load on the MAST server, we would like to prevent Astroquery users from getting products for TESS and TICA FFIs. When a user tries to do this, they should be presented with a warning message that presents alternate methods for downloading.
Right now, this filter only works if the user passes in a Row or Table to get_product_list, since we need access to the target_name field. We're aware that this is a limitation and will explore other options if we continue to receive these type of expensive requests from Astroquery.
