First of all, who needs 6.
But if you do, why would the sata power ports be completely absent?

Because they come from the PSU.
And six because people like making redundant storage arrays and consumer chips don’t have enough PCIe lanes to add a bunch of NVMe. They max out at 1x NVMe plus 1x GPU for the most part until they drop speed (x20).

Do you have a modular power supply?
Lol, I added a PCI passthrough card so I could get 8 more

Even though yall make me feel like a moron, this is the excellent information I come here for because google is basically worthless. I appreciate it.

Because 4 isn't enough and there are few with 12 or more on the mainboard.
Having to add an HBA consumes a PCIe slot that might be better used for other things.
