In this note we reexamine the possibility of extracting parton distribution functions from lattice simulations. We discuss the case of quasi-parton distribution functions, the possibility of using the reduced Ioffe-time distributions and the more recent proposal of directly making reference to the computation of the current-current $T$-product. We show that in all cases the process of renormalization hindered by lattice momenta limitation represents an obstruction to a direct Euclidean calculation of the parton distribution function.
