unless you get into serious IMAC/pattern/ect (if you get that good, to a point where even little things make a big difference, you will be flying 2500+ planes and the tx wont look so expensive)
or can drop 4000+ on a really big airplane that needs that many channels.
their is not really a way to justify it.
Funny you say this........just read your own tag line
lol.....well their is a difference between justifying and overdoing.
overdoing requires no justification
but on the topic, the only reason i could see a everyday sports flyer needing more than a 8ch radio is to expand the amount of models it can hold so you dont have to carry around more than 1 tx. also for the module capability to switch between 2.4 and 72, and possibly for more 3 position switches (not really needed but good to have)
