GM engineering had concluded that more cylinders was not necessary

Tim, even if the idea existing at Packard for more than a few hours, I don't think "necessary" from a engineering viewpoint was ever the justification, it would have been more to add prestige and something to differentiate the brand from it's peers. Certainly a V12 wasn't "necessary" in the Lincoln continentals thru '47.
