You can combine whatever you like in one typescript, but you’re restricted to
six styles (regular, italic, slanted, bold, bold italic, bold slanted). You can
just “abuse” the italic or slanted styles for your other weights.
If we're restricted to six styles why does this Wiki page show seven?
in principle one can define as many new ones as one wants ... it doesn't
happen in practice

Not meant as a criticism - just a naive question from someone who is puzzled.
Yes, you could also abuse \sc for another style.
Small caps are a bit special though, nowadays they’re often contained in fonts
and you address them via OpenType features.
