I believe (this is from a vague memory of a chat a while back) that it's due
to beacon intervals... once you exceed 4 SSIDs in 1 device, it's nearly 
impossible to beacon reliably on all 4 with traffic.  So it's mostly a QOS
issue/sanity issue.  If you're really interested in understanding it, I 
suggest the o'rielly wireless networks book[1].  After reading it twice,
I have a much better understanding of how it all works.  Worth every penny.
