Even if it’s one player with multiple controllers somehow (two detached joycons, for example), it’s unlikely a game would need very many.
No, that’s because the Bluetooth spec (or codecs, or something) only allow for lower-bandwidth audio in order to support bidirectional streams.
Like if you’ve got a limited bandwidth, you can run any two of high quality audio, stereo audio, and microphone input. There’s not enough for all three.
That’s simplified and probably not 100% accurate, but you get the idea. (Latency probably figures in there too, but it’s not the primary reason, as far as I know.)
