And if it isn’t, PCI express lanes could still be the issue. I expect the have to route a bunch of them to the ports on one side and a bunch of them to the ports on the other side. So if you stick to using just one side you are restricting yourself to using only part of the machines available IO.

Yet another reason why dedicated ports was so much more simple than USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 frown
