Consider the people who typically use more than 15 partitions per disk: Really more than 15? Who has that?

Currently, I have three disks, with 20, 13, and 16 partitions respectively. Certainly, not scssi.

Hi all Limiting to 15 partitions reminds me of de old DOS days I can not format FAT with more than 32 GB, in those days (when they developed FAT) I suppose nobody dreamt of more than 10 GB. So they developed NTFS but they are incompatible. Same goes for a screen 640 x XX. Tramiel OS TOS on Atari and the old Sinclair computers were way ahead of MO-DOS with its intrinsic limitations... Only extreme good marketing brought INTEL and MS-DOS on top, else Motorola, Texas Instruments Atari and Sinclair would have won the battle. So no I do not belief that we have to develop a system with intrinsic limitations, but then the future might prove me wrong.
