I could use 6 fps on occassion, but those occassions are infrequent. That kinda hits the nail on the head. Long life cycles in cameras are a thing of the past. Build quality was important to a greater extent when a camera might see a decade or more of use than it is now, with a life expectancy of a few years being all that is required for the vast majority of cameras sold. To meet a 6 fps burst rate, the shutter would have to be improved tremendously to be reliable, and I expect that the buffer would need to be faster as well.
