So basically, this is not a true 6-rail PS. It's a single-rail supply that, because of the presence of 6 regulators, adheres to a specification. The six-rail labeling becomes no more than a gimmick to announce that "more is better", when in truth most of us with high-end rigs will use it as a combined rail for the overhead it provides. That is pretty much what I had been thinking, and you all have given me the particulars. Thanks.

It's kind of like we always say in high-end audio (my other passion/hobby): Amplifier wattage is king. In well built gear, there is no substitute for it-even though you will rarely, if ever, use it all. It is the overhead that it provides for sudden dynamics that make it desirable above anything else. You will never "blow" a pair of speakers with too much power. You will, however, destroy them in a moment if you attempt to play something at excessive volume without enough power: that is clipping.
