I might be way off here

After checking pics of the RB5009 motherboard I find it seems like it has pads for 2x pci-e ports, one for SSD storage and one for USB

What I would like to know.....
- has anyone tried soldering pci-e ports to the pads ?
- Can mikrotik HW engineers confirm that soldering ports to the pads will work ?
- If this would work, it would be possible for people like me, that is a nerd on this, to add the ports and use a pci storage device or wifi/LTE card and mod the case for external antenna ?
- if the last one is a yes, I will solder this and add more mikrotik har to my mikrotik hardware
