The maxports branch required MEV=physical, so a VM with a real HBA carrying disks fell through to acports even when maxports was the right answer. The gate goes back to at least 2024-06 and every commit touching it since has been a rename or syntax change - no recorded reason for it. Drop it from both the config recommendation and the automated write. Only one case changes: external controller with disks on a VM now gets maxports, matching what bare metal already got. The port-0 handling in getmap() keeps its own MEV test and is untouched.
