There's nothing to stop someone plugging a 13 amp load into every socket
in the house.

Except, perhaps, the maximum load the feeder into the house can supply.

So I assume those who continually come up with a 'what if' as regards
final ring circuits and just how horrible they are have taken this into
account? And limited the number of sockets in their house to about 7?
