I understand. Again, there are claims of the need. I am not sure that it is
needed (by me), but I have seen signal processing chains that do need it
(internally in our plugs), so I am not willing to dismiss it out of hand.

There are systems today that currently implement wide I/O (Sonic Solutions,
for example).
