It's perfectly normal to see several neutrals wire nutted together in
a junction box. Say a switch is going to serve 3 lights that have
seperate runs to them. In that box, the neutrals from each light run
would typically be tied together with the neutral coming into the box
from the breaker. So, you'd have 4 white neutral wires nutted
together.

That's perfectly fine -- as long as they're all part of the same circuit.
Wire-nutting together the neutrals from two different circuits is not fine.
