There are still, however, benefits (i.e. cost and higher capacity support) to the multi-carrier approach on a single physical RF channel that make it worthwhile to support in mainline.
I strongly agree. Multi-TRX is a feature for a single BTS with multiple transceivers (and one of them, per sectors). Having those on separate physical radio ports means you need to use external (expensive/lossy) combiners to combine those signals before amplification and feeding the transmit antenna.
