Here is my vote *against* having many macro buttons.
There is a problem with remembering which buttons play which macros.
A limited number is fine with me, but there is a break-even point when
you cannot keep track of them in your head and a 'cheat sheet' is
needed. I just don't want to get to the point where that cheat sheet is
needed.
In general, I prefer to tap out the functions needed on the regular
buttons because I can remember what those do. I have only a few
occasions when it is helpful to activate a sequence of buttons
automatically.
The only macro that I use is to go split and up 2. I can remember that
one easily.

If it was possible to set one of the PF buttons to a "more macros" feature, then not only 0 through 9 but essentially every other button and knob could be used to activate a different macro. It would just be necessary to push the PF key followed by the desired other button or knob.
