True, but that may just be a flaw of the built in controller, not of
SATA.  You can't connect scsi at all to many machines, which doesn't
make scsi broken.  You can get SATA controllers that run 24 drives if
you want, and unlike scsi, they don't even share the connector but
instead use one cable per drive.

I hardly see how 24 cables versus 2 is hardly even something you'd have to consider making a choice about. SCSI channels can take one heck of a beating, besides, your point is irrelevant since you can have the same software raid you'd use for SATA over several SCSI channels as well.

Lastly, all SATA drives have either IDE or SCSI interfaces anyways before they go to the SATA channel.
