ELI5: 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.

The bluetooth protocol doesn't have anything built into it to handle multiple devices like that.

While in theory it could handle sending a signal to multiple speakers, the most important thing when you've got that many speakers is that they are in sync with one another, and that is a significant technological problem that can't just be shoehorned in to the protocol.
