1/N gives us support for multi channel compressors, limiters etc,

A proposal where each group of ports can have it's own number of
channels just brings lots of modelling problems, like what does it
mean if you have 14 channels and 2 sidechains? It's just not useful,
and your argument that it's no harder is not convincing.

Well, it could be, but that seems sure to be limiting in the
future. It
also seems to be not really feasible, short of being a joke useful for
only the most trivial of plugins:
