Why can’t we connect multiple Bluetooth speakers to a phone and play them all?

I was thinking of WiFi and how it is possible to connect multiple devices and use the internet. Why is it not possible with Bluetooth? I mean the same song from one phone being played in multiple connected speakers.

Edit: Thanks everyone for the clarifications.

Bluetooth was designed for a single connection. So think of it as a single wire between two devices like amplifier and headphones. It can power two devices but the signal needs to be split digitally. There are speakers that allow multiples to be connected and some phones allow for the signal to be split between say 2 headphones. So it’s a single connection but they have created work arounds to handle customers requests.
