I think I remember having this discussion a long time ago, but you and some of the others weren't around then so I'll explain again. The reason for it being possible to solo multiple instruments is to make it as efficient as possible to mute/unmute tracks. If you have 10 instruments and only want to hear two of them, you can solo those two instead of muting all eight others. 8 clicks vs. 2 clicks is very compelling. In this way I guess it is less of a "solo" action and more of being the converse action to mute, but we don't have a word for that so we call it "solo".
