I don't see a) how having multiple channel counts makes any difference

Lets see, in a typical mixer setup, we have
Audio:
in X N
out X N
master out X 2
bus out X 8
Control:
master gain X 1
channel gain X N
low shelf X N
high shelf X N
trim X N
pan X N
bus sends 8 X N
all looks fine to me.

Several
channels on a mixer should be doable with the 1/N channels
restriction.
A mixer usually has several 'strips', each of which may have different
counts. Like the ardour mixer, for example. This is a simple,
realistic, and useful case where simply having a single global value
doesn't cut it. The same goes for virtually anything with several
signal paths.
