    a mobo usually only has 1 USB controller for way more than 15 USB ports though

    This is not true for the last… many PC motherboards I’ve used. The USB ports are almost always split between the CPU controller and a chipset controller.

    If you want to be really pedantic I guess you could argue that the motherboard only supplies one while the other comes from the CPU. :P
