Hmm, interesting, I thought a basilica was an additional designation for a cathedral, I didn't know they could be stand alone. But I think you can only have one cathedral per bishop?

Ah, that might indeed be it, cathedral = the seat (of a bishop), and it's bishops you can't have too many of in the same place, lest you get a schism.
