You're still missing the forest for the trees.
There's no real reason why you'd have to choose having a few ports + a hub or tons of ports + the option of using a hub.
If you prefer to "consolidate" your devices to a single poinf of failure on an external device then by all means, go ahead. I just think that it's pretty crappy that options are being artificially limited and users of all people are making excuses for it.
