Fair, but do you have to manipulate them at the same time? For example, additional prosthetic arms can help you carry your bags, or hold something else. This doesn’t require much brain power to do, and is still very useful.

Any random individual? Maybe not. But one man bands exist and are completely reliant on this concept.

Fair, although I was more referring to fully separate tasks, one could argue a one man band is still broadly doing things in sync and broadly the same mental task.
It is a valid point that it could be learned with enough practice and dedication, but I think going above two would be exponentially harder.
