One is if you are amlifing AM for example and eleminate the envelope and restore it that would work just fine. But, if you have multiple frequencies of different amplitudes that you clip and then restore the envelope, how does each seperate frequency get assigned it's approprate amplitude?

Without going and refreshing my maths, I think the 
correlation between amplitude and phase matters at 
modulation frequencies, not to every rf cycle. Provided the 
delays through the audio and rf paths are differ by small 
amounts compared with audio frequencies, the effects are small.
