I've run into this issue, but for me, I seem to get an additional slot every time I use a Quirk-B-Gone potion.

So far my Sim is up to 6 total slots.

I've had the issue of having quirks past 4 in the form of that other thread's issue, where quirks seem to still be active, even after removing them.
This one: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/WORKAROUND-GF-Removing-quirk-Sim-behaves-as-still-there/td-p/7189700/page/4

In relation to THIS issue, after doing the workaround listed in the other thread, every time I used a Quirk-B-Gone, I also gained an additional empty quirk slot.

Here's a picture of my Sim's current quirk status: https://puu.sh/DBXiP/9732039bb1.png

    I played again today, and upon loading up the same Sim, the extra empty quirk slots disappeared, and he was left with 4 slots for his 4 normal quirks.

    But unfortunately, this didn't stop him from being able to develop quirks past 4, and upon using the Quirk-B-Gone again to get rid of the 5th quirk, he was left with an extra empty quirk slot.

    Also I'm not sure on the limit of these extra quirk slots.
    I stopped playing yesterday after reaching my 7th slot, at which point they started just appearing outside of the fame info window.

      Yikes that is a bug. 

      I got the issue too, but with my celebrity still with his 2 quirk slots. The other 2 slots (quirkslot3 and quirkslot4) are still unlocked

      The issue goes like this, I think can be reproduced easily

      1. I got the no-touching quirk, which appears in quirkslot1. 

      2. Then I got the stan quirk in quirkslot2.

      3. Then I drink Quirk-B-Gone potion, to remove no-touching quirk

      4. Now my celebrity has quirkslot1 empty and glowing red, stan quirk is still in quirkslot2

      5. Add additional quirk with 'testingcheats on' cheat, right click the sim, then add new quirk, in my case: I add paparazzi darling

      6. instead of appearing quirkslot1, for some reason the quirk appears in quirkslot3, which supposedly still unlocked!

      Serious bug here, Sims team needs to check this!
