USB can handle 127 daisy chained items. However, there’s like an absolute maximum of the amount of data and power that can go over any one USB port.
Assuming this is USB 3, that would typically be capped somewhere around 5 gigabits per second and usually, 5 to 15 watts of power, so they would all have to divvy up that between themselves.
USB is pretty smart, so it probably won’t automatically divide down based on the number of attached items like Wifi used to and instead the controllers should dole out the in-out requests on an as needed basis.
I really wish there was a way to find where someone legitimately has a need to nest, like, 16 levels of USB devices and find out WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THEM. But also what possible legitimate need might force such a nightmare. lol.

The only two honest answers would be wartime measures and laziness
Well, 3. “To see if I could.”
