Fair question.
I'd say probably most output stages can drive about 10-12 inputs, easy. 20,
probably.
There will be a point where the voltage each module "sees" will drop enough
to be audible, due to the parallel resistance of all the input summing
resistors.
But then a retune will fix you right up.
You are just heating up the 100Ks in the inputs more.
