The key here is to make the bus channel visible. I'm not sure if the track mixer also displays bus channels, but the audio layer of the environment does. If the bus doesn't show up in the audio layer, create a new audio object (type:bus) and set it to the bus channel you wish to pass your tracks to. Once the bus channel is visible, it's output can be assigned in the same manner as all other channel strips, via a menu located above the fader. Put your inserts directly on the bus channel, and delete your aux. Problem solved (although without as much elegance as other DAWs, perhaps).
The only downside I can see is the possibility that busses can't be assigned as inputs to audio tracks. I'll have to check this once I'm back in the studio.
If might be worthwhile to populate your audio mixer with 32 busses and then save this configuration as a template. I'd be happy to send you one if you'd like.
Hope this helps!
