Ah. I see.
I thought that the proposal for that the number of channels in each
port would be 1 or N.
In that case, I object to the proposal on the basis of over
complexity, and trying to solve a problem we don't actually have.

I was trying to point to the question of: Why
base the replication
of a
control port on the replication of the audio ports? The audio port
replication is based on the number of channels, so base the
replication
of the control port (if it is to be replicated) on that also.
... the audio port replication IS the "number of channels".
So we have two new port properties: one to say
this port should
always be
replicated - audio ports would use this - and another to say that
this
port can be replicated but does not have to be. The matching of
counts
is implied because there's no sane reason why port replication counts
would not match.
You are (falsely) assuming the replication is the same across the
entire
plugin. i.e. there is no global "number of channels" value
