Currently CF is licensed per 2 CPUs (as well as this distinction between Standard and Enterprise). To run 50 instances in any stable way, more than 2 CPUs will be necessary, so that model would drastically cut the number of licences sold.
However it would be interesting to see if Adobe could review the pricing model is some way, because I agree that some of those features would make a difference to some small shops.
