The way you describe it, "Look like they have 16 Bus sends on each channel. It appears they have combined the functionality of the previously separate into one" isn't quite right, IMO; they have combined those separate functions into one area, in which you can choose to have each bus be one thing or the other or something else entirely. The console has a total of 16 internal buses. Separately, there are 16 XLR outputs. There are also 8 Effects slots, which can be stereo, for 16 more things. You can set up those 16 internal buses to be any combination of what other consoles call "Aux" buses, and you can set them up pre or post fader, either individually or in linked pairs.
