It's not an underlying platform limitation. It's more to prevent abuse and improve the end-user experience. In fact, in Chrome we currently only allow one video OR document picture-in-picture window total across all tabs, though that is stricter than the spec dictates. There's concern that multiple always-on-top windows can quickly become unwieldy
